a other viewer have mention and this film be an interesting experiment in photography . the color be comic book bold . i think the director get carry away with his artistic vision over the look of the film instead o badly need attention to content . despite it stellar cast and the performance be lackluster and the story nearly incoherent . madonna be likely cast purely a a stunt to get pre release press . a good thing a her appearance here lend some credence to her album i be breathless ( music inspire by the film dick tracy ) which be a stratospheric hit ( due in large part to the inclusion of dance hit vogue which be not in and nor have the slight relation to this film ) . i would guess the major portion of money from this film come from tie in to madonna i be breathless album . if you watch it at home and by end title and you will think there two hour out of my life i would like to have back . save yourself the wasted time do not bother with this .
