DVD Reviews of Masquerade
DVD Review: Good B Movie
Summary: 4 Stars
I don't think this will ever land on anyone's list of Best Films ever made. Nor will it keep you awake pondering the philosophical implications.
But it's a good movie! It starts out with beautiful shots of yachts racing in the Atlantic with gorgeous Rob Lowe at the helm. Then it moves quickly to (gorgeous) Rob Lowe in bed with Kim Cattrel, showing it all as usual, who plays the wife of the yacht's owner. Rob does show some hint of a conscience at the betrayal when he mentions that his boss/her husband trusts him. However it doesn't slow down the action.
Next we see the virginal looking Meg Tilly, graduating from some Catholic institution, shaking hands with the Bishop. She wears a gold cross during the whole movie and we learn that she is very, very rich. Then, at a dance Lowe is introduced to Tilly, while her evil step father, drunk as usual, leers at them from the bar. Hmmmm...How is this all going to play out?
Oh, I forgot, the blond, square-jawed cop who fell in love with Tilly at age 12, and seems not to have given up that dream. Again....how are these characters all going to interact to give us a good show?
The script is fast and clever with many twists and turns. I won't give it away. All the actors do a good job. Meg Tilly has the kind of face that can look very bland and boring, especially in the beginning when she's wearing her rich preppy girl outfits and one wonders if the hyper handsome Rob Lowe character could really prefer her to the sultry Kim Cattrall. But Tilly perks up when she's in love and looks quite beautiful in the later scenes, especially in a black dress where she makes Cattrall look dowdy.
I can't give it five stars because the plot is too improbable, but if you just look at it as a good show with pretty people, beautiful scenery, appropriately scary music and a lot of surprises, then you should enjoy it.
