However I love this movie. yes it is a battle between good and evil in a sense, but good(the kid) and evil(morris day) are NOT the focus points of it. I love the messages Prince gets across with his movies and music. The "plot" seems to have been thrown in at the last minute. Avoid this steaming pile of offal at all costs. Okay, okay, it's a mess, but it makes me feel good and I like watching it, okay? 2 out of 3 found this helpful The fact that there was very little speaking and more body language is beautiful, The total distinction between all of the characters is beautiful.
I paid to see this one, that's who I am.
Glam Slam isn't doing so well and The Kid doesn't seem to care. "graffiti bridge" follows on from "purple rain" prince's movie debut. A revolutionary story of guitars, motorcycles, cell phones, and the music of a new generation 1 out of 1 found this helpful 6 out of 6 found this helpful
They are meant to open your mind and make you think and possibly find answers to things you don't know. It's very offbeat.

Title: Graffiti Bridge (1990) 4.5 /10. 1 out of 1 found this helpful Does anyone know if angels exist?
There are a lot of songs. She decides to seek out the help of Prince in USA, and sends him a tape of her ... A concert film with theatrical staging, featuring live performances by Prince and his band.
Who am I to judge? In a chess game it is necessary to protect the king, however the queen is the most powerful player on the board and it is very difficult to win a game if she is lost unless her sacrifice is so that the king or the other players are in position to check mate.
A young musician, tormented by an abusive situation at home, must contend with a rival singer, a burgeoning romance, and his own dissatisfied band, as his star begins to rise. The unofficial sequel to 'Purple Rain' (1984). Loved all the songs, and loved all the love/hate and good vs. evil. To watch this movie on its own without a mind bias of assuming that because you liked and understood the previous movies, you will like and understand this one...you find many elements of it that do appeal. I believe the main thing that causes people to dislike this movie so much is a misunderstanding of the roles and the purposes in it. Plot-wise, the two films are pretty similar.
Even if you like his music, forcing yourself to submit to this boring, pretentious, disjointed tribute by an egomaniac to himself isn't worth it.
It's far shorter and it's way goofier - doesn't take itself as seriously. It's very weird. Along side of the character of Aura, is the music. Honestly, I think I prefer it, just a bit, to the 1984 film. I have no doubt Prince still makes great music, but this movie proved that sometimes he's simply too weird for even my tastes. But most people don't see that, all they see is that this movie isn't like Purple Rain, or Under the Cherry Moon, all they can see is that they have to think a little bit in order to enjoy it and since it isn't spelled out for them or so overly artistic that it must have reason then it must be the "worst prince movie ever".

Is all music good or just the kind that makes us dance? I would rather sit through a nonstop marathon of Madonna's movies; I would rather be chained to a stake and have to fight off a horde of ravenous crocodiles while watching Richard Simmons and 300 fat women sweating to the oldies; I would rather listen to a recording of Fran Drescher singing the aria from "The Barber of Seville" in SurroundSound than ever have to sit through this thing again. Great music wasted in bad plot about a spiritual rivalry. They both fight over a girl (here it's Ingrid Chavez, who is beautiful but lacks the charisma of Apollonia; she's most famous for co-writing the Madonna song "Justify My Love"). A concert given by Prince on March 30th, 1985 in Syracuse, New York. I am a die-hard fan of Prince and his music, but even I thought this movie was horrible! True, it's like a hip-hop-gospel musical in which no one has bothered to learn how to act.
With such potential to be major and yet, with such manner of 'pooch-screwin'' going on. When I first saw this movie the one thing that outright attracted me was "Aura".
