I was surprised at the quality of this movie. I guess I had much higher expectations than was realistic. I had heard the Australian (opera singer? can't remember her name) on Andre Rieu's show, sing "Don't cry for me, Argentina" so beautifully, so dramatically, so convincingly?, that I assumed that the movie would be as dynamic as represented by the soloist's dynamic delivery of this song. But I now suspect that the movie was probably a fair representation of the real person of Evita, who must have been a sad, unfulfilled lady, struggling to do her best, but certainly not aspiring to noble heights, which was what I anticipated and imagined when hearing the song. It was the first time I had heard it, and my curiosity was greatly aroused !! And when you think of the big names, Madonna as actress and Andrew Lloyd Webber as the Musician/songwriter, you have to assume that it must be dynamic. But it was good (and that's pushing it) and probably par for the course in the year it was released, but certainly not something one would consider watching again, or even recommending. I offered it to my daughter who watches lots of movies with her young adult kids, and she declined.Read full review

If it worked properly! The disc didn’t play correctly. It kept freezing and then jumping back to the beginning after watching it for around 10 minutes. This happened at various stages during the film. A poor quality product.

Great well known songs......Don't cry for me Argentina, Another suitcase in another hall, Oh what a circus, etc. Madonna and Antonio Banderos play their parts brilliantly. Timeless tale of rags to riches. Evita's rise to fame and finding love along the way.

i have never cared for Madonna's music however I could not believe she was singing the soundtrack. what a voice it was the best the very best rendering of 'don't cry for me Argentina' and it actually was her singing. I don't know why she hasn't taken her musical career to the next stage and tried for a different audience. I didn't know she had real talent anyway what ever. the film was good. I wish they had taken the time to flesh out her death it all seemed to be ' cut off' the male leads were brilliant yes its worth a see, i probably will watch it over which is rare for me

The main reason this dvd is so good is it is a piece of history, told in a factual manner and all wrapped up in a musical. The all star cast delivered top class performances that actually drew you in to the story. So much so that you forget it is a musical. I bought this dvd when it was first released and still have it. My daughter was always enthralled with it as much as I was. We both have just been to see Evita on the stage and as a treat I decided to buy her a copy of her own.

I love this film could watch this everyday, all ways reminds me of my Dad he saw EVITA give on of her speech’s said it was amazing.

Product quality was excellent. I did enjoy watching several favourite songs, but sometimes I found others a bit heavy going. Overall, it is not a film I will watch too often. I would rather listen to the chosen songs recorded on CDs.

The music is good and good acting too. Have not been a big fan of Madonna but she was very good in the film as Evita and sang some good songs.

One of my absolute face movies despite featuring Lady M! The only thing she'a ever done that I have liked! My number one fave in ALW/TR musicals and Jonathan Pryce gives the performance of a lifetime! Would like to have seen what Miss Page would have made in place of Madonna but can't hava everything I suppose!
