Heath Ledger as Casanova

The story of famous heart breaker Casanova and his quest for true love.

This movie will only satisfy 50% of its viewers by my opinion. It is a light romantic comedy, which presents us with Casanova as only being a great lover and a fun guy to be with, which is historically incorrect and does not do justice to him. So as strictly for Casanova this is one of the worst movies made about him. The movie is just taking advantage of the name.
But on the other hand this really is a fun comedy to watch. You will get many laughs watching the adventures of Casanova and people around him. The scenes are really great, I mean they really bust up the atmosphere, since the movie is set in Venice. Music is really good to and also makes a pleasant affect on the movie.

As for the actors go, they played their roles really good considering the movie genre.
So how to rate this one, as a chick flick this one scores 5 stars, great environment, beautiful dresses, really cure actors, a love story and love conquers all...

As a Casanova movie I would hardly give it 2 stars and that is only because the environment is really great.
I would advise considering what you really want from this movie before buying it.

Summary: A story of a lover which has nothing to do with historical Casanova
