Although the DVD dates from 2002, the movie was made back in days when Madonna wanted to shock people -- primarily by appearing nude in one context or another. At least one woman, presumably Madonna, appears nude in scenes where it is logical to assume that the nude woman is in fact Madonna. I personally don't consider "Body of Evidence" to be a knock-off of "Basic Instinct" but the premise is similar: A man dies during "kinky" sex and a sexually provocative blonde is the prime suspect. The difference is that in this movie the blonde (Madonna) gets involved with her attorney (Willem Defoe) instead of with a detective. Would a married attorney get involved with a female client? This story makes it believable. There is at least one or two relatively explicit sex scenes, and a couple of other scenes that involve female nudity. However, if you can handle the so-called "mature themes" of sex and nudity you can handle "Body of Evidence." There is a hole or two in the execution of the story that might have been tightened -- thus my vote of "good" rather than "excellent" for the film as the "product" -- but I have no complaints about the quality of the DVD.Read full review
I rather enjoyed this film..Madonna at her sexy exotic best..she may not be the stunning beauty she's sometimes portrayed as..but she can hold her own acting..however I would have kicked had I been Madonna had I been given Willem Dafoe as my leading Man..can we say eeewww..the Man can act I will give him that, but he is one ugly Man! Joe Mantegna is in his element playing a DA out to get Rebecca played by Madonna..As good as this film is it rather bothered me they threw her private life into the trial spolight rather then focusing on the actaul crime....murder! The ending was no surprise..sadly the bad thing about this film is it is very predictable..even with that being the case this film was a fun roller coaster ride of sex and whodunit..no one does it better it would seem then Madonna!! Do I mean sex or the murder? Watch it and see!!Read full review
I'm not a real big Madonna fan but I was told she did an excellent job in this movie and I was told correctly. This was a good story, well written and well acted. The surprising twist at the end wasn't as surprising as it was meant to be but it was a fitting ending. Willem Dafoe is good in most everything he does and he is very good here, as is the rest of the cast. The movie was well worth the time and money spent.

Campy "Basic Instinct" wannabe with Madonna & William Defoe. No really a bad movie, has a wierd twisted ending. This film is NOT for kids ESPECIALLY the UNRATED VERSION! This film has TONS of Nudity by Madonna (who HASNT seen her naked) and there are VERY graphic "LOVE" scenes. Just a Very Erotic WHO done it film. I ama HUGE William Defoe (BOONDOCK SAINTS one of his BEST) fan and this is the main reason i got this-plus Madonna isnt half bad either ;) I am sure if you'll watch it more then once and very cheap on Ebay. Hope you enjoy! If you are going to purchase it GET THE UNRATED-why bother with a badly edited version!
Tells me about love and sex in realationships and how sex can be use in wickedness to steal a man's money ,, how wicked it can go
