Here is how Madonna could produce a movie that is actually good and enjoyable to watch and not a conceited, wanky pile of dogshit - call it "I Will Never Direct A Film Again". People would flock to that shit on it's premise alone.

Madonna peaked in the 90's. How is she able to still find employment? She's pushing, what, 80?

There's potential.....not enough for me to make it through the full trailer though.

i think abbey cornish is a good actress and i've always found edwards story to be sad.  this probably won't be any better than "meh"; but, i might give it a look off of netflix.

I am amazed how quickly people dismiss something as bad just because it was done but someone they hate...chillout people....if you have a sorry, miserable life in loosertown, at least have he dignity to respect all the effort and sweat succesful people put in to their projects...you don't like the movie don't go to see it, period

Okay,  I just watched this and don't understand why it is immediately dismissed as "dismal"?   The historic source material is incredibly interesting and (based on the trailer) she put a great deal of time/effort/thought into casting (great cast), locations, costumes, photography etc. like any good director with a great eye would.   As far as craft as casting, this looks really well done. The only thing I can knock the trailer for is the crappy music, but it's probably being used to market to specific demographics.  Like any trailer. So clearly the criticism here is based on Madonna the media personality, and the usual misogynist thoughts on women and age, typically held by insignificant men, intimidated by confident, powerful women. So take this same trailer, remove Madonna's name, credit it to an unknown fictional *male* director , and I GUARANTEE you the reaction would be more positive.

I have to agree. I thought it looked kind of interesting. Just because Madonna was the mind behind it, doesn't automatically make it a bad film. I  might even take the time out to go and see it. Very interesting subject.

"W.E. is both written and directed by legendary actress (/musician-turned-filmmaker Madonna"..... Legendary actress!???   If by legendary you mean a singer who tried her best to became a film star too, and failed miserably, then yes....that truly was legendary.

Well I watched Angels & Airwaves "Love" and didn't hold it against them that I find them to be crap musicians (especially the singer).  I gave it a chance. However, Alex was immediately enthused about that trailer, without having seen the film.  Here we are with the W.E. trailer, and he's already dismissed the film, without having seen it. Further, W.E. has also received positive and mixed reviews.  That means there are critics out there that liked it. Yet he only links to an article on dismal Venice Film Fest reviews.  An article that also says this : "A lot of people will loathe it, simply because it's been made by Madonna. But if they were to watch it with no knowledge of who directed, they would be pleasantly surprised." Lots of weird bias on this site.
