Tempted

HI everybody,

I've just seen the movie Tempted here in France and well,

I think it was a nice movie to see in the afternoon when you don't want to think about your studies :p !

there's something I'd like to ask you:

Durind the movie we can hear a very nice song, and I'd really like to now its title, and who's the man who sings it!

It's quite famous, I've already heard it many times... but I just can't remember its name !

If someone could help me, it would be very very great !

thank you very much !

I hated this movie! Don't know why I even finished watching it. Oh, yeah, I remember...Jason Momoa was nice to look at.

It moved slowly. Stupid story. Bad acting. Way too sappy. I didn't feel any compassion or connection to any of the characters except maybe Kala (Jason Momoa). A dumb too-easy ending.

I had a big prob with the age discrepancy. Momoa & Madsen are actually 24 & 40. However, Momoa's character Kala has a 15 yo son who lives with his ex-wife! I think that would be biologically impossible. Ok, he actually looks older than 24 and his character behaved more maturely than Emma (Madsen). The character he played must have been much older than the actor really is, but IMHO not much older than 30. That would mean he had his son at 15. Ok, that's biologically possible, but married, too, at that age?

This movie was suppose to be about a married woman being tempted by a younger man. Jason Momoa is very sexy and sensual. Who wouldn't be tempted? So where were the hot, steamy love scenes??? There was some kissing, but I never felt any heat between them. Besides Jason Momoa, the only other thing good about this movie was the beautiful Hawaiian location.

I rate it 2 out of 10.

Ok, so I saw Tempted about 2-3 weeks ago. My critique, the title expains it all. Emma (Madsen) is a workaholic mommy, who "doesn't connect" with her husband anymore, has to deal with her typically bad-attitude-child, and no time to deal with it, and worrying about her einstien youngin cuz, nothing else is wrong with him but,gosh darnit, he doesnt have any friends! Well, just when just when you couldn't feel any sorrier for poor-working hard-typical AMerican-dont know how do deal with my life and all the insignifixant crap that surrounds me- mommy, guess what?? Her guardian that raised her as a child DIES! And as she is just beginning to feel like crap for not taking time out of her day to call her every now and then, she gets a letter, in saying her "dying wish" is for her to take her ashes back to Hawaii to have an ancient burial. UGH,BUT HOW WILL THIS FIT INTO MY SCHEDUAL?!? Ok, so she leaves the lil monsters and there ridiculosly unqualified father back in Boston as she takes off Hawaii, where she meets Kala, her guardian's sisters, much younger son, and she becomes "Tempted" by him. And he is pretty smittin by her too. Anywayz, as that romance barely begins to bud before it blossoms, back home in Boston ol' Daddio comes home to ms teen thing making out on the couch with sum Hoodlum!!! Her excuse, "Daddy, you aren't supposed to be home this early!!" Yeah, I know. So, papa flips, and flies the kids and himself to Hawaii where he can hide behind Emmas skirt from the children. Meanwhile, BACK to Hawaii while all the drama is happening in Boston, Emma is informed that their land is going to be taken over or something, they never really go into it, it really takes a back seat to the whole "I am tempted by you" thing, that takes the wheel, but don't worry, it all comes together in the end :) But as she goes to get the legal papers from a bitchy neighbor who is fighting for the case, she is shockigly surprised that, her mother in fact isn't dead, but living on that very island!!! - now guess who it is? Oh the drama! Oh yeah and Kala "the one who is tempting every one" (Jason Momoa) has a son too.. yup.. 15.. same age as lil hell raiser from Boston. Hmm.. intresting huh?? And in all actuallity, Momoa would have been like 7 when he had the kid, no kidding. Now, just as the a storm is coming in, lil hell raiser figures out the whole thing about her mommys mommy and yells and screams and throws a tantrum and just when you want to throw the t.v. out the window to get rid of her God-awful screeching, Momma stands up and screams back and runs off as her offspring calls for her to come back, Momma is running and the storm rolls in...And if Im not mistaken which I may be"pathetic papa" and "Pretty boy" clash, all the while, the storm rolls in, representing a coming dramatic climax to the movie. (I totally get symbolism)Ok so, as pretty boys kid comes in and starts telling "Einstein" about all these bones in this cave or whatever, he just HAS to see them, so the three kiddos take off somewhere where the other two (Einstien and Lil hell raiser) have no clue where they are. As pretty boys youngin' climbs the cave to get candles I believe it was to light the cave becasue the storm has started, he falls about 3ft. and somehow manages to -what- knock himself out. So, Lil hell raiser and Einstein are left alone, she goes for help and he stays behind, what happens next. You'll have to watch and see. :-) Alright, so in final remarks, in my opinion, over-acted, way to dramatic ;especially Brooke Harman a.k.a. "lil hell raiser" but don't fret my dear, there is plenty of room for you on "The Young and the Restless", you'd fit in great. Jason Momoa's steamy hot looks are the only thing attracting middle aged house wifes to this flick. If you had the chance to watch that or stare at your hands, then I'd watch it, in all actuallity, it really wasnt that bad. Just a bit over acted. Although I must admit, I'd only watch it again for one thing. Jason Momoa. Seriously, pretty, pretty man

Jason Momoa is an ABSOLUTE GOD!!!!! His presence dominated the entire movie...I kept staring at him throughout the entire show...I didn't know they made men like him!!! (YUMMY!) I thought the movie was beautifully played, excellent location. I thought Emma was a bit too old for him though, and the fact that Jason looked too young to have a fifteen year old son! that threw me a bit. I didn't feel the chemistry between them...but HELLO!!! if I had to leave a home where I felt unappreciated to go to a tropical paradise and met Jason..I would be on him in seconds!! he is just so absolutely perfect. Even though Emma's role was uncertain at times just having Jason's presence in the movie made everything worth watching again...and again...and again...

This movie kept my attention, There are a lot of Jason Momoa fans out there, I'm not one of them and I'm not familiar with this work, but I can see why the ladies love him so much. I am a fan of Virginia Madsen and her brother Michael, it is nice to see her in a semi romantic part, she had the worst husband and children on the planet! Ungrateful, useless and whiny. No way I would have stayed with the husband she had, he couldn't even let her enjoy her time in Hawaii without him flying himself and the kids out there! And before that calling her to handle mess he should have been dealing with as a father. Leave her be, give her her time and let her come home in peace , not take that garbage there. I would have definitely chosen the handsome guy on the island to stay with. Her husband only confessed his love for her when she admitted she almost, almost fell for someone else who made her feel loved and alive. She deserved better! She was a lot more loyal to her family then they were to her. I would have never left a man behind on that island that loved me as much as kalai loved her.!
