Hilarious and Romantic with beautiful settings and clothing
Added 10/14/2009
Having watched this movie several times, I never fail to laugh. The costumes are beautiful and though the movie revolves around a seducer of women, a human side of true love and his determination to obtain that love, comes forth. Heath Ledger is fantastically entertaining as is Omid Djalili. Sienna Miller is that intelligent woman who knows what she wants and believes, and isn't afraid to speak of it. She is truly who all woman should strive to be. This is a movie to watch when one is in need of some romantic fun and a few laughs besides.

Movie Okay/Manufacturing Shoddy

I don't know from whence Amazon gets it "duped one too many times" copies of movies (this one said "Hecho en México"), but this one freezes up every 5 minutes or so. With a little fanagling, you can get it moving again... and you only miss a little of the scene it froze on... I think...

"A Splendid Period Piece"
Added 8/18/2009
Academy Award winner Heath ledger stars as Casanova, the world's most famous ladies man, in a beautifully produced film. The movie follows Casanova from his philandering days with women to the point where he meets the lady of his dreams who doen't want to have anything to do with him. With beautiful costumes, amazing scenery, and exquisite production detail, "Casanova" will satisfy the most ardent fans of historical movies. The film is in essence a romantic comedy with a bit of drama thrown in. Heath Ledger, who had just finished his amazing performance in "Brokeback Mountain playing a gay cowboy, shows his versatility as an actor in this piece. Larry King of CNN says, ""Casanova is what movies are all about. An absolute delight". The DVD is filled with informative bonuses including the featurette "Creating An Adventure- The Making of Casanova". Another detailed feature is " Dressing In Style" in which the dress designers discuss how the fabulous costumes came to be created. This is one of the more insightful bonuses as the costumes became as important a character in the film as the actors themselves. The outfights are simply breathtaking. Sit back and enjoy a marvelous film. Sound is dolby digital with 5.1 Surround Sound and french and spanish subtitles are included. The movie runs 111 minutes.

A must for woman of all age to watch!
Added 6/21/2009
Casana had finally met his match! The movie is very funny to see the wit of the woman Casana is falling in love with. The is a romatic comedy. As Casana shared his secrets with the shy guy, I found the same principles could be used by woman toward man. This is definitely a must for woman of all age to watch! Casana is very clever in catching the human nature of curiosity. In the United States, we stress too much for a woman to catch a man. Man prefers to be the hunter instead of the preyer. A woman that is beautiful plus intellegence will still attrack her Casanova. I love the movie and will recommend it to the singles who would like to meet the opposite sex and the couples who want to keep their fire of love burning.
