Original Sin belongs in the "so bad it's good" category of languid potboilers, offering enough nudity, sexual chemistry, and far-fetched plotting to make it an enjoyable lazy-day diversion. Based on Cornell Woolrich's novel Waltz into Darkness (previous filmed by François Truffaut as Mississippi Mermaid) and set in turn-of-the-century Cuba, the film traces a tailspin of amorous obsession when coffee plantation owner Luis (Antonio Banderas) discovers that his American mail-order bride (Angelina Jolie) is not the plain wife he'd expected, but a beautiful, scheming thief who's after his fortune. The movie asserts that love is truly blind, but absurd twists of plot make Luis appear more stupid than passionate. Writer-director Michael Cristofer fared better with Jolie in Gia; here, he's made another good-looking film about beautiful people, but its plot just can't be taken seriously. --Jeff Shannon

Customer Reviews:

Excellent!.......2007-05-13

I had been searching for the Original Sin DVD for a number of years. I had seen it once when I was very young, and it wasn't available in the UK. It may not be a life changing movie, but I found it very enjoyable to watch. Jolie and Banderas work very well together. A lot better than you'd think.
Definitely one to buy!

Passion of Mind entertwined with Passionate Bodies.......2007-02-15

The film is well titled and is full of intrigue and mis-direction, yet it always returns to its central theme of over arching sexuality and attractiveness.

Better than expected.......2007-02-13

I had seen the rated version of this movie, but bought the unrated version instead. Great Movie...!! Rated or not. Worth the watch. Angelina Jolie is wonderful in this movie. And Antonino Banderas-its always a pleasure to watch him.

Sexy afternoon thriller.......2007-01-25

Please don't buy this film if you are a super film critic and wish to tear apart the weaker aspects of Original Sin. Buy this film if you love love and are fans of Antonio Bandaras and Angelina Jolie. It was quite a strech for these two blockbuster actors to do such intimatly nude scenes together, I have never seen either do nudity. They were beautiful together and sizzled the screen with their bedroom and tub love making. It was definatly an afternoon turn on to see these two great actors make love in such a realistic fashion it made me blush. Thomas Jane added more to the film with his bad boy good looks, these three actors were made to take their clothes off, they all had such awesome bodies, it was art on the screen. The plot was set in Havana, and shot in Mexico and you could really get a feel for the Spanish influence Antonio wore elegant panama suits and the wedding scene all the people wore beautiful panama draped white suits it really made you feel you were in Cuba, the shots of the cuban country side were rich with sensual colors and mexican people and planations were beautiful. The plot had many interesting twists to keep you intrigued. When I saw this movie I was extrmemly surprise that it didn't get a better box office review, but I am the kind of person that doesn't always like what everybody else does and this is one film I really loved.

Original Angelina.......2006-09-11

I am really glad that I got the unrated version of this movie. It was worth the extra cost. I would put this at the top of my favorite Angelina Jolie movies list.

Hot Dawg! This one rocks!

Description

Book publishing is always a competitive business. At Peverell Press, it's becoming cutthroat.

Scotland Yard's Adam Dalgliesh is called to the venerable publishing house by one of his longtime literary heroes to look into a stream of hate mail received by some members of Peverell's Board.

When a series of macabre deaths occur, Dalgliesh and his young DI team uncover a snake pit of family rivalry, sexual jealousy and dark secrets. It appears that the answer to murder lies buried deep in the past - but whose?

Description

They were the world's first people, the first to live, the first to love, the first to yield to temptation. According to Genesis, God created Adam from the dust of the earth, then formed Eve from Adam's rib. Their simple story of temptation and innocence lost has endured and resonated in the hearts of Westerners for thousands of years. As a creation legend, morality play and love story, the tale of Adam and Eve has always been a source of fascination. This extraordinary program combines expert interviews, abundant location footage and rare paintings and artifacts to create a unique portrait of the two people who started it all. This is an in-depth look at Adam and Eve, the man and woman who gave humans their humanity.

Product Description

First appearing as a trailer that ran before the theatrical release of "The X-Men," this futuristic epic was one of the most popular animated series ever created for the Internet. The original seven episodes of the hit sci-fi/action series are now available on a special DVD compilation. When the forces of darkness conquer Earth and enslave humanity, one woman is tapped by God's angels to lead the fight against the demon empire. The warrior monk Machine trains her to become the ultimate demon slayer; the fallen angel Gabriel then assigns her missions that take her down into the earth's core, where the demon occupiers have built a new Hell. She does not yet understand why she was the one chosen for his task; all she knows is that the fate of mankind hangs in the balance. And some of the most dangerous demons she will have to face are the ones within herself. She must find the strength and courage to become what the Kingdom of Heaven needs in its darkest hour: the ultimate savior-assassin, the Bulletproof Diva.
