Heavenly Bodies Audience Reviews

Colibel Terrible acting, screenplay and direction.
VividSimon Simply Perfect
Konterr Brilliant and touching
Voxitype Good films always raise compelling questions, whether the format is fiction or documentary fact.
Ragnarok-5 This movie is very light on plot, very little character development, and some other reviewer said this had great T & A? It even failed there. I wouldn't say this is the worst movie ever because they are worse movies out there than this one. It's sad when Samantha's friends/business partners aren't as developed as "man at pool", "Thug #2" or "screaming girl" characters in other movies. This doesn't even make a good time killer. I wouldn't say avoid at all costs, but they are better movies to watch. Also, waaayyyy too much music. Finally, the T&A could have been much better, but that's the way it goes. This movie fails in all ways. Its like eating Chinese food, you'll be hungry for another movie in an hour.
jehaccess6 This film was low budget and it showed. If you look at the top of the screen, the boom mike is clearly evident in at least two scenes. The plot was rather far fetched too. You can tell the production didn't take itself too seriously, there is a movie poster for 'Flashdance" clearly evident in an early scene of the film.What saved this film from total failure was the huge effort by the star Cynthia Dale. She just about killed herself in her exercise scenes. You could see what terrific physical condition she was in and that she was no stranger to dance training. The fact that she is stunningly good looking didn't hurt either.The climax of the film, the exercise marathon, really came alive with the absolutely compelling effort Cynthia put forth. I know it was only a performance, but the level of her exertion is still clearly enormous.I could only find this film on VHS, but it is worth the effort to catch this great performance in an obscure film.
VegasDV While some are correct in saying this film is so bad that it's funny, you really would need to be the type of person who could laugh at a totally ridiculous plot, and severely poor acting. It's a complete waste of anyone's time. I can only believe the 19 or so people that rated this film a "10" either incorrectly thought that was the worst rating, or possibly were family members of those that appear in this disaster. You would think a release by Playboy Enterprises would, at the very least, have some eye candy. However, even the characters who are supposed to be "sexy" are more like K-Mart catalog model rejects. I believe they were trying to ride the popularity of "jazzercise" at the time, and were thinking a Flashdance like story would be enough to release this in theaters. However, it ends up being a seriously boring version of (the much later released) Dodgeball, in which exercise-dancers try to save a workout club through a competition with their rivals on TV. Do I need to say more?
G-Man-25 I howled with laughter all the way through this silly, childish "Flashdance" rip-off. It's a definite contender to the list of "so bad, it's good" flicks, although it's probably too obscure to be widely known. The acting is pretty hideous and the script is packed with of some of the most unintentionally hilarious dialogue you'll hear anywhere. "Flashdance" had many of the same qualities, but this makes "Flashdance" look like high art in comparison!!More laughs than the average comedy.
