Suddenly Naked

I only saw this movie because it has my favorite actor, Michael Shanks, in it. I was surprised to find that the film itself was really superb. the story kept my attention, and the characters were well developed and carried through. coupled with a great script and great acting, the movie came along great. I suggest seeing it if you can.

so yes, it is a tad cheesy, but i don't think you'll really mind all that much.

This movie made me love Michael Shanks even more, and I added a few new actors and actresses to my list of favorite actors.

It's hard to find in America, but feel free to try. it's worth it.

It is odd how I got to this movie. I was buying some used movies at the video store. I got this one just because it was cheaper to buy 3 and did not at all expect to particularly enjoy it. By the title and box I expected it to be something almost porno. I LOVED it. It was one of those great surprises like going into a divey looking cafe and finding outstanding food and service. Wendy Crewson rocks. (Almost as good as her toy scene in Better Than Chocolate :-)) This character was just so charming, vulnerable, world weary and cynical at the same time. I adored her. Felt like I knew her from the first couple of paragraphs so to speak. Great job by actors and director. Kudos and I hope I find many more like it. When you expect a movie to be mediocre it usually is. Not this one.

Suddenly naked was supposed to be funny, lovely little comedy, but turned out to be surprisingly bad. Few good jokes, but otherwise too little saying. Actress in the leading role was not that bad, but I was irritated by the way she had to talk or mumble all the time, I guess she was trying to be cool - however, I found it repulsive.

I have been waiting to see this movie again since I first caught it in July 2003. It is now Jan 2004 and I was delighted to see it again!!! It's a very quirky movie, not a blockbuster, but I thought it was great. Interesting dialogue, the characters could use some more development, but overall the plot is sweet. And it doesn't hurt that the movie involves a good band, Gob! I just wonder if there is a soundtrack out there somewhere. Anybody know?

Well, I would like to tell those very few people who didn't like Suddenly Naked to take another look at the film. This movie is simply Fabulous!! Hurrah for Canadian Films!!!You can't go away from this movie without having a great, uplifting feeling which is much needed nowadays! It is charming, witty and even shocking at moments and keeps you on the edge of your seat with it's fun, quirky characters. I believe the direction Anne Wheeler took the film was definitely the way to go, keeping it light and witty with an underlining edge of urgency in order to achieve that special comedic timing....I love it!!! Wendy Crewson, what can I say, what a cool woman, she was so free and committed to her work and was just a delight to watch, what an incredible personality. I love the way being with a younger man brought out her youthful personality.......as well as the HEATED quality...very sexy!!! The pacing of the movie was right on and paired nicely with the mood of the film...way to go Anne Wheeler, you never cease to amaze me. The direction is fabulous, the acting is charming and if you want a little SPICE added to your life, this movie is a Gem and a must see!!!
