Movie Review Summary

Ok, so this story isn’t a biography, it’s a comedy of events. And what a comedy. It’s not barn-stormingly funny but it does exceed expectations. Heath Ledger is perfectly cast as Casanova, while opposite him is a delightful actress – so much so that I had a real problem accepting it was Sienna Miller. First of all, it didn’t look like her, secondly she wasn’t being type cast (the blond haired damsel was given up to be a brunette independent-minded strong woman), thirdly, she was really really good opposite Ledger. The story is very well connected, with Jeremy Irons hamming it up as the law enforcer sent from the Pope himself to end the ways of Casanova, and the surprising love the characters find between them unsuspecting themselves.
