- Reviewed in the United States on March 2, 2025Love this movie, pretty underrated like several movies of his
- Reviewed in the United States on August 24, 2014This is one of my all-time favorite movies. It's a romp, a spoof, an adventure starting with Casanove doing what Casanova does in an upscale nunnery for the daughters and nieces of the elite. Signals indicate the authorities have entered the building. He jumps into clothes, grabs the rest, and starts running down the marble hall with the nuns waving from their doors and shouting, "Don't forget me!" He climbs out a window onto the tiled roof in Venice (where this movie was filmed). The group of authorities follow. One looses footing and plops into the canal below. Casanova also looses footing, but stops his slide inches from going into the canal and escapes by leaping the canal, and clawing his way up over the window sill and into a lecture hall in the Doge's palace where the wigged and robed intellectuals are listening to lectures on the subject of women. The lecturers include a Bernardo Guardi, already damned by the Catholic church as a heretic. In his escape from the nunnery, he drops a shoe in the chambers of Sister Beatrice, niece of the Cardinal, and the the chief authority comes after him.
Next we're spectators in a trial of Casanove for fornication in a nunnery and hear him sentenced to be hanged at dawn. The Doge enters and informs the judge that his witness (Sister Beatrice) is the niece of the Cardinal who will be mightily upset at this scandale in his family, The doge places Casanove under his protection and the case is dismissed. As they walk outside along the arcade beside the Doge's plaice, he informs Casanove that he's banishing him from Venice for his own good. The only way he'll let him stay is if he finds a reputable woman of property and marries her. Thus begins the shopping for such a woman all over Venice, by Casanove and his man-servant, and his finally settling for the girl in the window across the canal from a family that is destined to play a huge role in life. Her father accepts Casanova's proposal, the young woman is smitten and can hardly wait.
But Casanova discovers he's engaged to the wrong young woman and falls head-over-heels for the young woman across the canal form his fiancee. He discovers that she is, in fact, Bernardo Guardi, the writer/heretic, who disguises herself as a man. She was, in fact, the lecturer in the Doge's palace when he jumped the canal and climbed into the lecture hall. In his/her writings she rails against such men as Casanova who seek pleasure with women, and are destined to be untrue.
How he manages a duel, finds that his love does NOT have a secret lover as rumored, how he survives a night at a Carnival ball with two women looking for him, how he elude the Pope's chief of the Inquisition (played masterfully by Jeremy Irons), wins his love and escapes another hanging. enliving the rest of the film. The only movie entirely filmed in Venice (in some of the most beautiful interiors in the world). this movie is gorgeous, sexy, and fun. The surprise ending leaves everybody but the Inquisitor very happy. A must see!

5.0 out of 5 stars A tender & poetic Heath Ledger as Casanova
A funny, tender, poetic & beautiful film about love, passion, changes and fighting for one's dreams. Heath Ledger is absolutely brilliant, sexy, funny, exciting and wonderful. Jeremy Irons and Oliver Platt are superb. Director Lasse Hallström shows us, once again, his sensibility for describing tenderness, friendship and love. Beautiful music by Rameau, Vivaldi, Albinoni and other Baroque masters. Charming costumes. The whole movie was shot in Venice, which gives the film a lot of beauty and splendor. Super entertaining and cool. Indispensable for all Heath lovers.
P.S. The DVD has very exciting EXTRAS (behind the scenes, an extended scene and parts of interviews with Heath Ledger & Lasse Hallström).

5.0 out of 5 stars Uno dei migliri film che abbia mai visto! Eccezionale.
Ottimo cast, ottima recitazione, commedia, romantico, Venezia (difficilissimo girare film a Venezia).
Ottimi effetti speciali, costumi, ecc.
Comico (specialmente se ascoltato in Inglese). Non avevo mai visto Jeremy irons in una parte così comica.
Heath Ledger è al suo meglio. Siena Miller bellissima e bravissima.
Uno dei migliori del genere.
Piacevolissimo, divertentissimo, consigliatissimo.

5.0 out of 5 stars Beauté et action
Casanova est tourné à Venise où la ville est belle et filmée en détails et où les costumes sont d'époque au détails près. Les personnages sont attachants, aussi bien les principaux que les secondaires, car ils ont tous un caractère propre. Le tout forme un équilibre très agréable. La seule chose qui manque peut-être est, au moins, une scène de plus avec plus de dialogue entre Casanova et son aimée. Toutefois le dvd contient une très belle scène dans les Bonus où la jeune femme avoue enfin son amour. C'est un film de changement de décors et de masques, en fonction des changements d'identité des personnages principeaux jusqu'au coup de théâtre de la fin. C'est un très beau film.
