Watch Who's That Girl For Free

Best movie of this year hands down!

If you don't like this, we can't be friends.

The performances transcend the film's tropes, grounding it in characters that feel more complete than this subgenre often produces.

It's entirely possible that sending the audience out feeling lousy was intentional

I love this film! Shoot me, I love it. It's a great screwball comedy. Madonna plays herself. There's something about the platinum blonde hair that's simply enchanting. I even love her big, bushy eyebrows. Nikki Finn is such a cool character. She jumps across the rooftops, runs the streets with a cougar and crashes one stuck up bitch's wedding. I want every one of her outfits! No wonder Madonna stole them all and went on to her big Who's That Girl tour. Of course, she wrote some incredible music for the film, like the title track and one of my favorite ballads, the hauntingly beautiful "The Look of Love".

I do not understand at all, why this comedy got so much criticism. I love this little comedy, it is so full of fun and I also love Madonnas character. So whole-hearthedly I give it 7. I think everything in this movie comes together very well: the funny idea, directing and acting. Madonna is brilliant as revenge-seeking Nikki Finn, a girl who is a funny mixture of childishness, craziness, other-worldliness and sex-appeal. The funniest bit is when she climbs over the fence in a leather jacket and a tutu, to save her one true love. Madonna is not afraid to be totally silly in this role and really becomes the character she is playing. I saw it first time on a day when I was very very sad and down, on the edge of breakdown, and this little comedy made my day. When finished watching, instead of tears of sadness I had tears from laughter on my face. I whole heartedly recommend this. And yes, Madonna can act - not just in this movie, in other ones too!

Madonna's well-known fascination with Hollywood's golden era glamor (what about this woman is NOT well-known?) led her to seek out a vehicle that hearkened back to the old screwball comedies of the 30s. But while those movies featured charmingly ditzy upper crust types like Jean Arthur and Carole Lombard, this one is built around Madonna's repellent and vulgar 'comic' portrayal of a bottom-feeding street moll with an annoying accent (or more than one) and tacky wardrobe sense. Pia Zadora has more charm, talent and screen charisma than is displayed here by the Materialistic one. Griffin Dunne should get a medal for his attempts to hold the picture together on HIS charm and manages to anchor his scenes adequately even with his co-star running amok in her wild attempts to play a colorful role. A leopard also co-stars for no good reason other than it brings to mind Bringing Up Baby, something this movie otherwise fails utterly to do on its own. The weak script wanders aimlessly in search of situations where Madonna can attempt to be 'zany', but contains little memorable dialog and gives the principles little to do other than bicker with one another in unfunny fashion. Watching this movie reminded me of being stuck in a car with low class neighbors who fight in public. This is not even a so-bad-it's-funny movie, since if it were actually funny, even unintentionally it would have succeeded somewhat as a comedy. It doesn't. It's just irritating.

The 1980's was a incredible decade for movies even for bad movies like this. I look back to it and think that even the trashiest movies of that decade were not as bad as many movies that appeared in the 1990's and in 2000's. This is a classic example of a bad movie that you might enjoy it and might think: well it's not that bad and it's quite enjoyable. "Who's that Girl" is a silly mix between "Something Wild" (released in 1986), "Bringing Up Baby" (1938), and perhaps more movies where a crazy girl disturbs the peace of a quiet man creating nothing but trouble and in the end they realize that they love each other.In James Foley's film Madonna plays a ex-convict recently released out of jail who wants to clean her name and put behind bars the responsible for her detaining. Griffin Dunne plays a correct lawyer who's taking care of the preparatives of his wedding when his father-in-law (John McMartin) gives to him a mission that involves the ex-convict: simply make sure that the girl get into the bus to Philadelphia. Simple as that if wasn't the fact that she's a devil in person always with an innocent smile on the face, letting the poor guy crazy. Add to this a destructed and valuable car with a rare tiger named Murray in it (such a great animal actor) who is about to be delivered to a rich man (played by John Mills). The whole confusion of the beginning of the movie is irritating, obvious and very silly. It also includes the irritating little voice that Madonna needs to make to appear as a funny actress. She's very beautiful here but that didn't impeach her to have a terrible performance and win at the Razzie Awards. Plus the screenplay offers a variety of dumb characters (For instance two cops who are watching the girl's confusion but they don't make anything except get in the car or get out to car to lunch) and supposed to be funny situations that leads to nowhere if you think about what happens at the ending. I'm truly disappointed with this movie because director James Foley at the time just came out of a great movie called "At Close Range" a very powerful thriller with Sean Penn and Christopher Walken, and I think he needed a similar project instead of a cheap comedy like this. Gladly he recovered his talent in 1992 with his best film of all time "Glengarry Glen Ross".This is not a completely bomb. It has a fine performance of Griffin Dunne ("After Hours"). And if most of the moments are not funny at all there are some of the dumbest lines ever. Quoting my favorite there's a scene between Griffin's bride (Havilland Morris) and Buck the muscular delivery boy (James Dietz, he's got some scary look in his eyes) during the failed wedding. She says: "You'll take care of me, won't you Buck?" And he replies: "Of course I will. I'm very muscular." This dialog appears almost at the end of the movie and that was my only laughing in the whole thing. Still it worths 5 stars because once again the movies of the 1980's gives you a twinkle in the eye and I've seen worst movies than this. 5/10
