Review of Swept Away (2002)

By Marshall Fine (1,011) for Journal News (Westchester, NY) (178) on 11 Oct 2002

It feels like a community theater production of a great Broadway play: Even at its best, it will never hold a candle to the original…

Review of Swept Away (2002)

By Susan Walker (133) for Toronto Star (3,601) on 11 Oct 2002

For all his fidelity to the Wertmüller screenplay, Ritchie has made a movie that is neither as attractive nor as repulsive, and certainly…

Review of Swept Away (2002)

By Norm Schrager (106) for Filmcritic.com (3,164) on 10 Oct 2002

It should be supercharged with fury, heat, and disturbing passion. Madonna lacks those things here, as does much of the film's second half…

Review of Swept Away (2002)

By Evan Henerson (54) for Los Angeles Daily News (1,272) on 10 Oct 2002

Ritchie's treatment of the class reversal is majorly ham-fisted, from the repetitive manifestos that keep getting thrown in people's faces…

Review of Swept Away (2002)

By Bruce Kirkland (531) for Jam! Movies (2,396) on 10 Oct 2002

Writer-director Ritchie reduces Wertmuller's social mores and politics to tiresome jargon…

Review of Swept Away (2002)

Festers in just such a dungpile that you'd swear you were watching monkeys flinging their feces at you…

Review of Swept Away (2002)

By Jeffrey Westhoff (767) for Northwest Herald (Crystal Lake, IL) (767) on 10 Oct 2002

It makes you wonder why a husband and wife would collaborate on a project in which a nasty woman becomes a better person only through the threat…

Review of Swept Away (2002)

By Randy Cordova (352) for Arizona Republic (3,909) on 10 Oct 2002

It's hard to imagine another director ever making his wife look so bad in a major movie…

Review of Swept Away (2002)

By Brian Orndorf (4,059) for Modamag.com (300) on 10 Oct 2002

Ritchie and Giannini will survive this, no doubt. But here's to hoping Madonna will just simply stay on that island forever…

Review of Swept Away (2002)

By Jim Judy (1,199) for Screen It! (1,437) on 09 Oct 2002

Far too predictable, irritating and never engages the viewer…

Review of Swept Away (2002)

By A.o. Scott (2,100) for New York Times (5,786) on 09 Oct 2002

There is no credible feeling here, no comedy, no eroticism…

Review of Swept Away (2002)

By Glenn Lovell (434) for San Jose Mercury News (757) on 09 Oct 2002

As Madonna vehicles go, this one is hardly the worst. But it does show the diva-actress at her most unappealing…
