Indecent Proposal

The trailer really put her in a bad light and this was actually pretty tolerable, dare I say enjoyable. I was waiting for something to happen that would make me take it back. I just haven't been having much luck with what I've been watching lately.

The onscreen talent carry it tremendously.

'Indecent Proposal' is a film that takes itself too seriously, which is a surprise given its ludicrous plot. It could've worked better as a comedy. Anyway, while viewing I was expecting/hoping for a moment of true drama that would set things alight, but it just waltzes through its 117 minute run time with little surprise and interest.

Demi Moore, Woody Harrelson and Robert Redford do make events much more enjoyable than they ought to be, though. I liked their performances. Noteworthy, also, to see Oliver Platt and, minorly, Billy Bob Thornton.

It is pretty meh, but thanks to the main trio it's just narrowly a good watch.

To save you 117 minutes:
[spoiler]If you let your girl sleep with another dude, you will both have traumatic experience, *SHOCK*[/spoiler]

A little melodramatic and preachy, but there's a great concept at the heart of it, and some good performances make it entertaining. Would you sell your spouse for a night for a million dollars?

Maybe money can't buy happiness but $1 million can buy a lot of therapy that the main characters sorely need.

watched this coz of that one joke from peep show.

the billionaire guy is indeed a psycho. the husband overreacted even after agreeing at first. also a bad cliche ending.

robert redford, i am so ashamed to admit i was not familiar with your game. you really thought you've seen it all until an acting veteran hits you with the yearny heart eyes googely moogely p***ywhipped expressions, i feel like i've been hit by a freight train. also if this was me this movie would've been done after an hour, like why was this even a debate. come on demi, ffs.

This film makes you think, what would I do? The drama is intense, the human desires and needs are juxtaposed with the love two people have and the attraction of a third. Emotional and ethical trauma are laid bare, and its resolution will make even the strongest shed actear or two.

Oh snap, times are changing..
