In his review Todd in the Shadows concluded that Ritchie dumbed down the movie getting rid of all of the explicitely political themes to turn it into a rom com in the vein of Overboard, but forgot to omit all the physical abuse which make it uncomfortable to watch.
Fun fact: Giannini being creepy earned him to be the voice actor dubbing Jack Nicholson in Batman89 and Shining The son is the voice actor for the Joker(Ledger) and the Joker(Phoenix)...they've done an amazing job So here in Italy we have a family of Jokers no wonder they do a good job acting creepy.

That is baffling that those two movies were overlooked by the Razzies for Worst Picture. Also, IMO, Master of Disguise is worse than Eight Crazy Nights. ECN didn’t have a good story, but at least it had *A* story. MOD, on the other hand, barely qualifies as a movie. It felt more like a series of sketches and sequences strung together with no rhyme or reason. Not to mention the fact that it’s only 72 minutes long, and the last eight minutes are padded with outtakes and deleted scenes.

Todd in the Shadows said in his review of Swept Away, that in the original it was obvious that Wertmuller was trying to troll her audience. That's why there was so much misogyny and the "hero" was so awful to his "love interest". It was supposed to shock and disturb the audience. I personally don't agree with that directing philosophy but I can understand what she was going for.

As a French speaking person that talks a tongue that is close to Italian and Spanish her calling him a midget makes a lot of sense, especially when you consider the implications and other senses midget has in other languages, and his own reaction to it. She was attacking him as a person by saying that he's a small, insignificant being as a whole, including his virility. She's calling him "small" and "ugly" in every aspect unimaginable... 😊

Nice! I had a feeling Sean would give a brief summary of Cinemadonna (a series by Todd in the Shadows, where he critiques Madge’s filmography)
italian here. Besides forgiving you for your italian, i'm here to explain a bit of context for the original movie. Italy has always had a big north vs south cultural clash. You can pretty much take every stereotype about blacks in american and it's pretty much the same thing here, but in italy it's so deep rooted that the third most voted party is the secessionist party (imagine trump, but even more overtly a white supremacist). But also yeah, southern italians tend to have darker skin (or they tan really fast). And southern italy is very close to africa. That is to say, it's not odd to see assholes using "black" as a derogatory term

Ok, my fanfiction mind is giving me an idea on how to revamp the original Swept Away and make it far less problematic. In my revamp, the woman lead would be a daughter of a rich libertarian capitalist who she strongly disagrees with when it comes to politics. The male lead would be a working class black man (most likely from African descent) who just has a job of working at the yacht. When the leads do get stranded, they figure out they should set aside whatever disputes they had and work as a team in order to survive being stranded on the deserted island. Better yet, the leads treat each other with respect and as equals, especially when they learn about the things they have in common. When the leads do get rescued, they get together for real, and they really have no former husbands or wives to get back to. And of course I'm a sucker for these kinds of interracial romances.

One of my least favourite remakes ever made and I’m surprised how Sean didn’t mention how pissed off Lina was at the remake.
About the original Swept Away: nope, it's not a 'product of its time'. The whole point is that neither Raffaella nor Gennarino are supposed to be 'sympathetic characters'. They are both horrible. The fact that, under some social circumstances, blue collar Gennarino is a 'victim of capitalism' does not mean that he is inherently a good person. Lina Wertmüller's cinema is full of morally questionable and ambiguous characters. The original Swept Away really makes the viewer question many assumption. In the end, it is not even clear whether Raffaella really falls in love with Gennarino, or whether she was manipulating him in order to survive. Unfortunately, nowadays viewers seek answers, not questions. They want the 'good people' vs. the 'bad people', the heroes vs. the villain, all nicely tied up by 'storytelling'. Such a shame.

If I want to watch something about a greedy billionaire capitalist and a hairy working-class communist arguing with each other, I'd watch The Lorax.

Why is it whenever I'm just having the worst time you post a new episode to distract me from it?
I think the original is not an issue of "of its time" as much of misguided progressivism that should be taken as a cautionary tale for current progressive artists and critics. As I like to say, intersectionaliting is hard and it is not easy to juggle different political issues without "dropping the ball" on one of them. Sure the original does a good job on class and ideological issues but REALLY "drops the ball" on gender issues, even with a woman and feminist director, and the simple script choice of the rich brat being a woman makes the whole thing have some awkward vibes, and the fact the class warfare angle is so aggressive (which from a socialist point of view probably seemed like a good idea to the director) only makes the unintended sexist angle meaner. There's a lesson in there that aggressive satire may not be helpful sometimes and that you have to think through how your politically charged flick is approaching several issues and never be comfortable that just because you belong to x under privileged gender or racial group that you may not do a negative work even against your own group. There's a lesson to be had there. In defense of the remake on the "black midget" thing, even in the original calling the male lead that was less about Southern Italians being darker and considered less white by their Northerner country-people and more one of those situations in which the insult used tells us more about the insulter than the insultee. It tells us that the Madonna character is a racist, ableist b*tch to the point of using racial and disability categories as insults even to people who don't belong to those categories. Sean arguing if an American in 2002 would categorise the guy as black or a midget is like hearing someone use gay as an insult and react with a "But that guy is actually straight!"; it is not about if the insultee is gay or not, it is about the insulter considering that gay can be used to just mean "bad" or "lame".
I thought the joke of the original Swept Away was that Pepe was revealed as a henpecked husband.

FINALLY YOU'RE REVIEWING GIGLI! I remember you saying you would do so one day back when you reviewed The Cat in The Hat! You sure took your sweet time!
I've been waiting so long for this.
The moment I heard Giancarlo Giannini played a role in the original, I had to back it up and make sure I heard that right. The guy went from the original "Swept Away" to playing Inspector Pazzi in "Hannibal" and Miguel Manzano in the 2004 "Man on Fire" film (specifying the year because it's an adaptation of a novel that previously received a film adaptation in the '80s). I have to say, if folks here haven't seen "Man on Fire" I highly recommend it. Rough subject material and not for the faint of heart but a great story nonetheless.

I don't know if anyone cares but if you've seen the animated Asterix movie called the Big Fight then you might know the composer: Michael Colombier. If you want to hear a good song from that movie google Zonked. Sadly this movie Swept Away was he's final movie to compose music for, since he passed away in 2004. Don't feel too sad: He also composed the music for such "classics" as the Golden child and Barb wire.

A League of Their Own was great. I don't particularly like baseball or baseball movies, Geena Davis is VERY hit or miss, and this was right about when Tom Hanks was transitioning from comedies to drama. Not a promising mix, and yet it worked. Snatch might be my favorite caper movie ever.

Best of luck with still having your sanity and a pulse after making it through all of Gigli...
What do they do with the extra time on the boat? Before you answered the question, I thought of the Sixth Doctor's answer to a similar question, "Argue, mainly!"

That guy looks like a drunk, Italian Andy Serkis.
Jeez, the original Italian version of Swept Away looks like an Indie Film version of the Torgo/Margaret relationship in MANOS THE HANDS OF FATE.

I like how Smeghead was able to smartly analyse Swept Away 74 whilst still expressing why he didn't take to it in a manner that made sense and was agreeable. It's something that a lot of reviewers simply get wrong but he did well.

Though I think arguing that the story is too similar isn't really the most valid criticism, as as long as there is a different take on the material, the same storyline can feel different. But I agree that given just how unconventional Swept Away is, it would have benefitted from a narrative switch-up to make it sell to a 2000's audience. Adding Madonna (who had a terrible 2002 between this and Die Another Day) doesn't automatically turn this rather dark story into a commercial marketable romance.

If this movie was made as a way for Madonna to still make sure that she is deemed hot (like you said), then she honestly failed. The character she plays is so hateable that even if she were the sexiest woman alive objectively, there'd be no attraction. Good personality and character are just as important as physical appearance (take a note, Amber Heard).
I loved this movie!
Maybe all the money is hers? And the husband doesn't want her to take it all with her. No idea, just made me think of Overboard.
