The Butterfly Ball Audience Reviews

CommentsXp Best movie ever!
Griff Lees Very good movie overall, highly recommended. Most of the negative reviews don't have any merit and are all pollitically based. Give this movie a chance at least, and it might give you a different perspective.
Rosie Searle It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.
Geraldine The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.
Katty The Rock Operas of the 1970's gave us such legendary productions as Jesus Christ Superstar, Ziggy Stardust, Tommy and Pink Floyd's The Wall. The Butterfly Ball doesn't measure up to any of them by a long shot. Unlike the films mentioned, the Butterfly Ball falls victim to a novice director with no vision or discernible talent. Skip this rubbish and see one of the classics I listed.
Noah Richardson I understand this is an early Rock opera but the director who made it is strictly out of the amateur hour. The shots, the editing, the lack of continuity and the script? Puh-lease! There is no script for this deck. I can't believe I wasted the few minutes I did on this poorly produced and directed drivel. If you want to see a good Rock Opera, please watch "Tommy" and skip this crime against culture.
Loren I had high hopes for The Butterfly Ball being good. I knew within the first few minutes I was in as much trouble as this film. The Director clearly was inexperienced and the film suffers because of it. Avoid this abortion of a film at all costs. Don't waste your time with this Ball.
Taddy Bin How can you possibly utilize the talents of Vincent Price, Twiggy, some fine musicians, wonderful source material and come up with this ABOMINATION called The Butterfly Ball? It looks like a couple of inexperienced students shot this with their clueless friends running around in animal costumes their mothers sewed for them. Disaster.
