5.0 out of 5 stars superb and one of almodovar's best., 2 Mar 2008
By Gary Mcghee "roughluv" (london uk) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Law of Desire builds gently, with great charm, humour and care in introducing us to a cast of very engaging and sympathetically flawed characters... and then a murder propels us into a mesmerising and unforgettable 2nd half which is as utterly believable as it is unpredictable. This is one of the greatest gay movies ever made, but I urge straight people to watch it in earnest if they want to see a brilliant film about real people, not stereotypes of either the positive or negative variety, and a story told with authenticity and freshness. The performances are uniformly excellent and Almodovar's direction has a lightness of touch and the simplicity and lack of pretension for which he is rightly renowned. I couldn't praise or recommend it highly enough. Just see it.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great movie, ruined by the English subtitles, 14 Dec 2008
I love Almodovar, this is one oh his best films. But I wonder: why did the people who made this DVD possible put subtitles which cannot be taken away from the screen?

I am from Lima, Peru. I do not need to have subtitles all the time. Did they know there is an option called "Subtitles: ON/OFF."

5.0 out of 5 stars Law of Desire, 19 Jul 2009
By Mr. James C. Kellam (Scotland) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This is basically a gay film, but should be seen by everyone interested in great film making. After a somewhat lightweight, frothy start, the film develops into something very much darker, with fine performances from the leads - particularly Antonio Banderas, who becomes increasingly menacing as it progresses. The picture and sound quality are very good. As an English speaker, I want to have the subtitles but - for world-wide distribution - surely it's best to give the customers the choice, rather than having them constantly on view.

If you like Almodovar's work, you won't be disappointed by this.
