Saw this film, by chance, one lazy Saturday afternoon, while just "couch-potatoing/channel surfing"...glad I was...Being from The Big EZ, it peaked my interest, not to mention the very colorful array of characters! Now... here's the thing: There was a scene in this movie, where Lily & Mulate meet up at a bar, called "The Saturn Bar"; I happen to know exactly where this bar is located within the 7th Ward of New Orleans.What I want to know is if that scene was actually filmed at that location, or was it simply a shot from the outside and filmed another location? Does anyone know? Just curious.Aside from that, I think I'll purchase the DVD to add to my New Orleans Colllection of videos. Really steamy and intriguing..~Robin~OH.. & P.S.: It held my attention, surprisingly, all the way to the end! It was Good.
... View MoreYou will not be disappointed with TEMPTED. It is a thoroughly entertaining exploration into the seedy world of dark characters whose only purpose in life seems to be to cross the line and just keep going.Burt Reynolds is great as the man suspicious of his wife. Saffron Burrows is perfect as his wife being 'tempted'. And Peter Facinelli is a breakthrough as the young builder enlisted to test his wife's fidelity. The film is suspenseful at every plot turn and twist as the 'test' gets out of hand and our characters are driven closer and closer to the edge. What really makes this film memorable is the way the filmmakers convey the feel of New Orleans. I've never been to the States but when I left the cinema after watching this film I honestly thought I had.***** out of *****
... View MoreI have to say i quite enjoyed this movie, i am the worlds biggest "Burt Reynolds" fan, although I was a bit confused with his part in the film, I dident know if he was the good guy or the bad guy, I still scratching my head over that one. I also thought "Saffron Burrows" did a great job in her part, although I was very surprized to see her do nudity in the film, you don't see that too often.8/10
... View MoreI went to see "TEMPTED" at the Fantasy Filmfest in Cologne, Germany.I´m not going to give away anything about the plot. I will just say, that this one is a truly good moody thriller, which is played excellently and executed (technically) equally good. This movie is a must for those who liked "WILD THINGS", and it´s also a must for everyone who didn´t like the aforementioned movie for it´s too many plot twists. "TEMPTED" always stays believable as the plot and the characters are concerned. I very much enjoyed the location (New Orleans)and together with the thriller plot it adds up to be very moody. Last but not least, the interaction between Burrows and Facinelli is very believable and sexy; not to mention Reynolds great performance!All in all just two words: Watch it!!!
