Madonna gives her most believable performance as Amber, a rich woman on a sea cruise who expects the world to obey her every whim. She and a high-spirited crew member (Adriano Giannini) are marooned on a small deserted island; the feud that sprang up between the two on the ship becomes an all-out war, then transforms into lustful desire as Amber finds that losing status opens up a new side to herself. Some people will want to see Swept Away for the simple pleasure of seeing Madonna be slapped; more demanding filmgoers will, sadly, be left wanting. Though the movie purports to be a satirical examination of capitalism (as was the original 1974 version), its vague discussion of money and power adds up to very little. The love story is surprisingly sincere, making Swept Away a standard romantic potboiler with gorgeous tropical backdrops. --Bret Fetzer

swept away

this is the best romantic movie i ever seen who ever thinks its terrible is a dumbass...and they dont really understand the movie...this is the type of thing that happens in reality and the last seen is the most beautiful when he throws the ring and it falls into the water...just the way two people needes each other when they were on the island and it wasnt because of the food but just they were lonely...

good movie

don't listen to the critics....watch the movie yourself and formulate your own view...you might be surprised

Poor Madonna!

I had seen the original film and now just viewed this remake and I asked myself, why the horrible reviews? Just because Madonna was in it? Looking back, the movie was torn to pieces even before it was shown in theaters!!
Actually I think that Madonna was quite good, probably her best role, she was much more natural than Mariangela Melato, and Adriano Giannini was as good as his father Giancarlo, and definetely much nicer to look at.
I took away one star because the unfortunate music video sequence, it was not necessary, and all it did was to remind the critics that it was "A Madonna Movie", a big mistake!

Do give this movie a chance, you may be as pleasently surprised as I was.
