In London, A.K. is a Ukrainian Gypsy, seeking fame as a rocker, doing odd jobs: he's a dom, drives a hack, and runs errands for his neighbor, a poet full of self pity since going blind. A.K's flatmates are Holly, a ballerina who becomes a reluctant stripper in need of coaching, and Juliette, a pill-popping assistant at a pharmacy run by an Indian tired of his marriage. Juliette, estranged from her family, dreams of helping the poor children of Africa; A.K. has a crush on Holly; Juliette's boss lusts after her. Her hapless sister calls from time to time. The poet despairs. Is there a route from filth to wisdom for these souls? Can they find fun and fulfillment? A.K. provides philosophical comment.
Leave your thoughts about Filth and Wisdom.
| Independent (UK)Kaleem AftabThe humour is slight and the directing often perfunctory, with Madonna failing to get more than ordinary performances from her cast. |
| Orange County and Long Beach BladeFr. Chris CarpenterMadonna's direction isn't half-bad...too bad she chose a poor script teeming with uninteresting characters |
| Screen InternationalJonathan RomneyWhile Filth And Wisdom may not quite inhabit the same Hall of Shame as Shanghai Surprise, Body of Evidence and (God save us) Swept Away, it's likely to be forgotten as quickly as most of them. |
| Detroit NewsTom LongThis is a movie that's just sort of there, and nobody much would have paid any attention to it without the Madonna connection. And chances are nobody much will even with that connection. |
| Dallas Morning NewsMario TarradellFor an artist who has spent so much of her career reinventing herself to lead pop culture, not to mention fatten her pocketbook, Madonna seems at her most sincere behind this camera. She coaxes genuine moments from the three principals. |
| One Guy's OpinionFrank SwietekFor there to be balance in the universe, good movies must alternate with bad ones. This is obviously one of the latter. |
| UGOKeith UhlichLeave it to the Material Girl to confound all knife-sharpened expectations, even in mediocrity. |
| Film Journal InternationalLewis BealeThe Material Girl goes behind the camera. With not bad results. |
| ColeSmithey.comCole SmitheyFans of Eugene Holtz may get a brief charge from his Ukrainian-inflected irony that saturates every word he utters, but all others should beware of giving this sloppy film the time of day. |
| MTVKurt LoderAs narrator-star Eugene Hutz puts it, "Without filth, there can be no wisdom." As deep thoughts go, this seems too feeble to provoke much in the way of actual thought, let alone to hang a movie on. |
