3.0 out of 5 stars A super music video at best., 28 May 2004
By A Customer
As a avid Kate Bush fan it is difficult to find fault in her work but I must admit the acting wasn't all that but musically and visually what a treat!!! Having lost my copy in a recent move I'm waiting to purchase a new one so would like to take the time to renew it. Fans already in possesion of the Red Shoes album will be familiar with the music and those who have watched the Moira Shearer 1948 film will be familiar with the plot. Not wishing to spoil the storyline I won't go into which songs fit where but I will say that musically Kate fans will be amazed but don't expect an oscar winning acting performance.

5.0 out of 5 stars Comic book escapades of a woman possessed, 21 May 2004
By Robert O'Toole (Warwick University) - See all my reviews
Not intellectually profound like some of Kate's work, but instead it explores a sense of great tenderness and personal meaning. I suppose some people just might not get it because of the juxtaposition of an intimate sadness and a playful comic book derangement. The grace and depth of Kate along with the wicked eccentricity of Miranda Richardson and Lindsay Kemp. Anyhow, the dancing and performances are great. As is of course the music. And I love those little devils. I recommend it.

3.0 out of 5 stars Hit and Miss, 3 Dec 2003
By J. Reynolds "jonnyboymach4" (London) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Okay - well I'll get this off my chest. First of all: Kate Bush can't act. She looks decidedly wooden at many points in this short film - and the whole feels like an excuse to link together several music videos under the guise of a film 'narrative', despite the connections being obviously crow-barred in on several occasions ('Eat the Music' is singing for her smile? 'And so is love' a song to represent her desire to be a better dancer?)

But get over this and there's plenty of fantastic moments that ring a true note. Kate jumping through the mirror and following a demonic looking Lyndsey Kemp; spinning through a snowstorm trying to reach her friends, and Miranda Richardson's maniacal expression whilst her bandages unwind during 'The Red Shoes'.

You kind of get what Kate was trying to do . . . it just doesn't work a lot of the time. There's a truely awful moment where the camera focuses on her eyes, spinning slowly, while she recites a kind of poem about her predicament. It's cringeworthy.

But it's definately got enough to warrant buying it - especially if you're a fan of her music.
