    Before she was Mystique she was just as sneaky and dangerous in Femme Fatale. Well acted and written, I even liked Antonio Banderas in this one.

    It was okay, I thought it was going to be alot better. It was a different sort of story though so that was a plus.

    En Femme Fatale (E.U., 2002), la acción principal se desarrolla en Francia (como en Nikita/Luc Besson/1990), justo en medio del Festival de Cannes. Lo interesante de este trabajo de Brian de Palma, es la reelaboración que hace de la clásica mujer fatal, propia de los film noir, aunque más moderna y que incluso puede darse el lujo de un arrebato lésbico. En esa escena, la femme fatale del título (Rebeca Romjin) ejecuta el robo de una enorme joya, en una secuencia montada con eficacia al compás de una pieza musical inspirada en El Bolero de Ravel (música de Ryuichi Sakamoto). Por cierto, la joya la lleva puesta una modelo, en la alfombra roja de la premiere de Este-Oeste (Régis Wargnier, 1999), protagonizada por la actriz francesa Sandrine Bonnaire, quien hace un cameo junto a Wargnier.

    De Palma cuenta una historia de tintes oníricos, sobre la redención de una mujer que se dedica al crimen por encargo. A través de varios episodios, veremos la persecución de la que es objeto Laura Ash, mujer experta en robos arriesgados. Todo empieza cuando Laura toma el lugar de una viuda en un vuelo hacia los E.U., donde conocerá a Bruce (Peter Coyote), futuro embajador estadounidense en Francia, con quien se casará.

    No estamos ante el mejor De Palma, especialista en retratos de los bajos mundos del hampa (algunos latinizados), pero sigue demostrando la fuerza narrativa con la que aborda sus historias de mafiosos y crímenes. Porque siempre habrá un crimen de por medio y una bella mujer.

    there are two really hot scenes in this movie. and of course there's antonio.
    but i didn't really like the plot. i expected something different.
    still ... i'm sure the director and his crew did a great job - but i can't give more than 2 stars.

    De Palma has outdone himself with this erotic thriller! It has twists and turns and along the way is visually stunning ala Palma style. One of his best hands down!

    An excellent movie by De Palma...
    There's some pretty sexy and hot scenes, you never know where's De Palma is leading you through the whole movie...

She double-crosses her partners on a diamond robbery in Cannes during the annual festival. But 7 years later her ex partnerthat got caught got out of jail, and seek for revenge...

    É bacana, muito bem dirigido e com ambientação perfeita.

    O problema é que tudo parece calculado demais: desde o clima noir-sexy até as fórmulas dos filmes de ação, passando pelos clichês lynchnianos, que aparecem a todo momento, sem que, infelizmente, façam jus à fonte. Parece um daqueles casos em que o conteúdo não é ruim, mas perde em originalidade e é sufocado pela forma.

    Para fechar, eu ainda não consegui gostar realmente de nenhuma atuação do Banderas em Hollywood.

    I know I liked this more than most. I also know that DePalma can overdo it, however I thought he kept this one together and made it work. Recommended for those who like a bit of suspense and some twists.

    Rebecca Romijn showcases very good acting ability for a model. Antonio Banderas is great as always. Decent film.

    It's as if De Palma decided to synthesize everything he's ever done right into a two-hour thesis film. I usually don't like twisty movies, but this is audacious and jaw-droppingly cinematic.

    Another intricated cinephile masturbation by DePalma, though his virtuous and stylish mise-en-scene is always present. fun and sexy, especially for the soundtrack and Rebecca Romijn's presence.

    Rebecca Romjin is hot as hell, but the horrible screenplay ruins most of the enjoyment, especially the groaner ending.

    No one does Erotic fiction like De Palma. This is not one of his best, but there is enough of his flare and artistic creativity that you will stay entertained. Romijn is not a great actress, but Banderas keeps the movie going.

    Twisted and pointless plot, long and boring, senseless twist ending. Seriously a waste of film. This movie is just an excuse for the actors to get naked and show their 'O' face. What's happening to hollywood?
