More than decent film!!!! - By: A. Lalor, 26 Dec 2008 
What would you do if you & your partner, who you loved dearly were in some financial difficulty & in order to allleviate your difficult circumstances a stranger offered you one million for one night with you? What would you & your partner do? Would you immediately dismiss the proposal, regarding it as preposterous? Would you accept basing your argument on it being only a one-night stand & therefore meaningless? Would you do it for the much-needed money? Or would you refuse saying that money cannot buy love & that such an act would reduce you to the likes of a prostitute?
Confused? Well that is exactly the complex story this film weaves excellently. With a thought-provoking script that manages to challlenge our every day perceptions of love & money & the depths we'd go to achieve them, along with some seriously moving moments guaranteed to shed a few tears from the female members of the audience & even managing to throw in a few comic moments this film is something special.
Add that to some superb acting from the smalll but talented cast & you're in for a treat. One can easily empathise with alll three characters from the lonely billionaire (Robert Redfort), who believes he can buy love, to the loved-up couple (Woody Harrelson & Demi Moore) who believe that they are untouchable & that their actions won't effect their "perfect" relatonship.
Beautiful cinematography, memorable music & careful editing make this a very crafty movie.
I'd highly recommend this movie for anyone looking for a mature, deep movie (something hard to find now-a-days)
superb - By: Ms. F. I. Macdonald, 26 Apr 2008 i havent cried so much since 'bridges of madison county', it reallly got to me this film, it was brilliantly acted & i could see the scenario, not so much the one night thing, but the aftermath being experienced in modern day society. How the characters changed & started to interact less with each other reallly upset me, You have to watch this film!!
great idea, but a few flaws - By: Stampy, 12 Mar 2008 
Woody Harrelson (White men can't jump) stars as David. He & his wife Diana travel to Las Vegas to win some money to cover their debts. Billionaire John Gage offers the couple one million dollars if he can spend the night with Diana.
Based on Jack Engelhard's novel, Indecent Proposal covers the wants & needs of relationships & what couples need to do to survive. This idea of buying people, although quite crude, is well established & portrayed in this romantic drama by director Adrian Lyne.
Though Robert Redford's (The Sting) character & acting isn't brilliant he does what he needs to do to dive right into the couple & exploit their problems. Harrelson & Moore (Disclosure) are both brilliant in their roles as the confused but loved up couple.
The whole idea of buying people for sex is horrible in my opinion but the film specificallly portrays the crisis that the couple are in & the viewers will comprehend the decision which is eventuallly made.
Its quite a hard going film considering the financial obligations & the emotions involved. There are a few clichéd love ideologies thrown in to portray the closeness of the couple.
David's whole idea on archaeology was very intriguing & was a cool little sub story to look upon.
Its tense & dramatic at various points though fairly predictable & corny at others. Harrelson & Moore succeed along with the whole idea of the film. Redford's character is annoying for the whole film.
It's a pretty normal romantic film, with acceptable acting & a good enough plot to keep you entertained till the end.
worth watching once or twice
Love cannot be bought by money in the end? - By: , 24 Sep 2005 Real love can be bought by money or wealth? And the money or wealth can make us happy? Most of us would face this financial matters at some point, & if you & your partner got offered something like this? You would sell your soul to it or you would stick to this love? It should be an ultimate decision to make. All you need is love? In the end, they might find something reallly important to you...? It tells what love should be... Joy, Anger, Sorrow & Laugh... We have to be able to share everything with our partner... Not just money or nice cloths... We will see if they can be happy... by the end of the story...
A Brilliantly well rounded film - By: kingy2406@hotmail.com, 27 Jun 2001 I had my doubts about this one, as it is a love film, & I tend to steer away from em (being a bloke, ha ha). But it mixes comedy in with a good cast as well as a good script. Demi Moore is as sexy as ever & the film does touch you (yes I'll admit). I'd recommend this film to anybody.
