I like many albums Prince made, and even a movie he starred in (Purple Rain). This review is not based upon a strong dislike of Prince. It's based upon my strong dislike of this movie.
My guess is that only massive fans of Prince (who are also most likely quite young) would deem this to be a good movie. I had it on while I did housework, so my time wasn't "lost." However, I would have enjoyed just about any other movie *more* than this one.
Poor direction, mediocre acting and a horrible script bury this movie. There were some nice costumes and the cinematography was okay, but nothing (including the song "Kiss," which I like) can save this heaping mess.
