A bit long, but it was very good. The acting was awesome, and I was surprised that I didn't get bored at all, since I'm not a big classical music fan.
can be accused of being a tad overlong, but all in all this is a phenomenal film. the music and opera scenes are the real draw, but the entire film is engaging and delightful. the film had a decidingly 80's feel but this doesnt detract at all from what is easily one of the best...( read more)

A grand sumptuous tale of jealousy and talent. Abraham, though not particularly sympathetic does create an empathetic lead. He's the man who tires so hard to achieve what comes so naturally to a much younger composer. He blames God at every turn, never taking responsibility for h...( read more)
The music of Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart has never been so powerful. Perfectly cast and backed up with beautiful music words cannot describe how moving and beautiful this piece of art truly is.
The actors cease to be actors, they transform into their characters, and the direction is...( read more)
The ending piece, when his funeral song is played, actually made me cry. A magnifiscent musical piece.
A gloriously colorful confection of music, theater and emotion. full review
In any incarnation, Amadeus is beautiful to behold. full review
The principal additions ... are more Amadeus, but not better. full review
I loved this movie "uoy evol i tub" I loved that part ha ha ha haaa
This is definately my favorite movie, and every time I watch it, at the end, when F Abraham Murry is doing the whole, "I will speak for you. i speak for all minorities..."
I just laugh out loud in awe, because it is such masterful acting!
Truly awesome.
This movie was very good. It was a sucessful drama, comedy and a murder. I never would have thought that Mozart was this way. By that I mean I never would think that this great composer would be a person to drink all day and party all night. And all the girls....what a DOG. I found it funny watching Salieri...he was a jeleous man.. And OMG that laugh was awesome....I loved it. There wasnt a moment that i didn't think was good.
This is easily my favorite movie in the whole world and nothing will EVER compare.
It's my favourite film! I watch it over and over everytime I go home after being away. I've even watched it in French! Nothing can beat this...
