Basically a superhero movie where no one understands or appreciates the hero’s power. No one… except the villain. If you need a really dumb hook for getting a kid to watch one of the greatest films of all time.

Perfection. I don’t understand why this movie isn’t higher rated. What criticism could possibly be raised about this flawless masterpiece? Too many notes?

best part of this movie is Mozart sick in his bed, reciting his compositions to Salieri and as he gestures and indicates the notes, you hear the vocals and instruments through his very presence. you are stunned by the way this mortal manages to convey such a distinct sense of music just through his language, the passion of his creation flowing so intensely that the audio itself shifts beyond reality to fit it all in. Salieri despises his younger genius, but in this scene, even after years of hatred, he is swept up in the genius of his creative process. that’s the kind of movie this is, the one that recognises that the power of creation is one that can alter every experience and preconceived notion you’ve had, even just for a few minutes of song.

The scene where Salieri sits up all night with Mozart to assist him in writing what will be his final piece is so moving, so heartbreaking. To see Salieri, a man who spends the whole film reckoning with his obsession and jealousy for Mozart’s talent – talent which he conflates with intimacy with God himself – become an extension of Mozart and that very talent, is so powerful. I’m reminded of the quote from Victor Hugo’s Les Mis: “To love another person is to see the face of God.” What you see in that final scene between Salieri and Mozart is not jealousy, not obsession, but love. C’est magnifique!!

The story of the first freelancer! All in all, a great movie and perhaps one of the finest biopics about a great artist.

La locura, la hipocresía y la malísima de Salieri causada por una envidia verdaderamente grotesca, una repulsión y un odio inexplicable, la perdición de Mozart fue nada menos que el amor. Increíbles actuaciones, escenografía impecable y el divino carisma al que le da vida Tom Hulce es exquisito y ni hablaré de la música porque no hay nada que decir, simplemente espectacular. Siento que Mozart es como ese cordero al que un monton de lobos están mordiendo, pobre tipo. Tampoco pude evitar el gran parecido entre Elizabeth berridge y Mckenna Grace 🤯

Clearly the makers of modern day musical biopics aren’t taking notes from this because THAT is how they should be doing it. Nothing short of remarkable. Unbelievable musical set pieces, every frame crafted as if it were a painting and an exhilarating classical score to match. All brought together by two incredible performances perfectly highlighting the complex relationship between the two filled with greed, jealously but also admiration. Genuinely flawless.

perfection movie i said it, how can jealousy, envy, vanity, hatred, even admiration be so great like this movie no one does jealousy as well as salieri does

Glorified dickrider. This is genuine admiration beyond belief. He’s a dickrider but his genuine love for the game will just not allow him to dismiss magnificent wiring of mozart’s brain He’s a dickrider, but he also understands when shit just out of reach, seeing the bigger picture and knowing he just had to play a significant part of the story of a once in a life time genius in the making just to give his own life some meaning. He…

I’m obsessed with their lifestyle and the way they talk!! so so pretty so charming and full of life And the way salieri questions God.. wow my favorite part i genuinely wish i could sit with him and just talk talk talk forever But the thing that I don’t understand is mozart was already killing and destroying himself so why was salieri taking the credit of killing him //: poor little baby i guess he just wanted to be the main character in mozart story so bad

AmaDEUS *cue Mozart’s laugh* R.I.P. Salieri, you would’ve loved knowing that the actor for your chatacter won an oscar against the actor for Mozart. This was quite the masterpiece, now, wasn’t it? Everything about it was so.. mesmerizing. The dialogues, the outfits, the characters, the direction, the music.. everything was all so mesmerizing. I watched the director’s 3-hour-long cut, instead of the normal 2 hour 40 minute version. And I feel quite good and proud about it, because I cannot…

Çok beğendim etkilendim. Konusu bakımından kıskançlığı çok güzel işlemiş. Biyografiye bütünüyle bakıldığı zaman gerçekle uyuşmayan kurgular var. Fakat Bu kurguların gerçek olduğunu sorgulatacak sahneler de var. Mesela filmin başlangıç ve final sahnesi gibi. Yani hikayeyi anlatan kişinin gözünden izliyoruz. Salieri’nin akıl sağlığı yerinde değildir ve bir akıl hastanesinde hikayeyi anlatmaktadır. Buradan da gerçeği yansıttığını söyleyebiliriz. Çünkü kaynaklara göre olay tam olarak böyle.

The procrastination ends here! One of the all-time films your music teacher shows you on the roll-up CRT. Mozart was a cool guy, a real rockstar who smoked crack and enjoyed a good fart. Arguably, not the masterpiece this was hyped up to me as for many years. I think it is very enjoyable, but a little aimless almost? It kind of reminded me of Marie Antoinette, a similarly immense period production following a historical figure everyone already has strong…

Good, but I think the subject matter just didn’t interest me enough for it to be any better than that. Although I can see why it’s the most recent movie to have two nominees for Best Actor. Best Scene: Salieri transcribing the music Mozart describes Best Small Moment: Mozart’s death music Oscar Goes To: F. Murray Abraham

It’s probably been at least ten years since I’ve watched Amadeus from start to finish. Upon rewatch I have to say, it might honestly be better than when I first saw it. Sure, some of the shock factor of the character of Mozart is gone; but there are so many little details that I’ve picked up on rewatch that make me appreciate the film even more. I remember when I first saw Amadeus, I think when I was in high…

Genuinamente que pieza de arte tan enorme y como no va a serlo si retrata la vida del autor de una pieza musical que es considerada la mejor de la historia. Y lo hace con todo el peso que se merece. La cinematografía sumados a la música implementada hacen de esta película una cosa intimidante, la paleta de colores oscura pero llena de vida es perfecta y la ultima secuencia en donde se van oscureciendo los colores anticipando el trágico…

You know Mozart really was a little freak, but Salieri had him beat ten fold in the crazy department. Bro was certifiably insane. I hate when people say they don’t make em like they used to, however this film warrants it. This movie is truly remarkable. The insane composition, both in music and direction of photographer is impeccable. The production design is on a whole different level. I honestly loved this movie, albeit it was a little long.

“Mediocres del mundo, yo os absuelvo”. Una reflexión sobre la envidia humana, la película toma a personas de la vida real y las implementa en una historia ficticia, mostrando que detrás de un artista talentoso también hay una persona, pero en ocasiones también habrá personas obsesionadas con tener ese mismo talento. Amadeus es en definitiva una de las mejores películas de la historia, todo en la película es increíble. Me gusta mucho el uso de la música clásica, los vestuarios,…

salieri is a rare case of truly hating to the fullest potential… i read pushkin’s play for class and i was surprised salieri didn’t poison mozart in this adaptation… nonetheless i really enjoyed this! the film production was insane and the runtime flew by

This might be the most accurate communication of what it’s like to observe a genius, from the perspective of one who isn’t. My favorite act is the one where Mozart is playing to almost nobody, and his opera only runs 5 times before being abandoned fully. Yet, despite this, Salieri went to all 5 showings in secret because he knew that what was being presented was the work of mastery, true mastery in the art of music. I think it’s…

Impecável, não tenho o que falar. O a trilha sonora, a paleta de cor do filme, tudo está perfeito… A história sendo contado e o fato que não á certo nem errado (a única certa era a esposa do Mozart) e a música que te comove e faz você sentir o filme como se estivesse vivendo aquelas situações. E o Mozart é o Fred de Scooby-Doo?

I truly went into this movie unprepared for the absolutely perfect music biopic I would be watching, and to be clear, it IS a music biopic—a well executed one at that. Amadeus has so many incredible moments and a fabulous portrayal of the fictionalized rivalry between Mozart and Salieri, that I was blown away by the movie when I finished it. Each piece of classical music played in the movie feels like a part of the composer’s soul, where many…

Salierenin öfkesini o kadar hissettim ki o da içinde bir potansiyel olduğunu biliyor müziğe tutkulu ama mozart gibi babasından hiç destek görmedi mozart tabiki çok çok yetenekli bunu da görmesi öfkesini artırdı salierenin ve madem bana onun yeteneğini vermedin onu anlayacak kulağı da vermeseydin demesi o kadar anlamlı kii bu sözü beni çok etkiledi bayıldımm

因为喜欢莫扎特而对这个电影有些失望 诚然，它是个好电影，一个严整精巧的故事，极高的完成度。从平凡人复杂的内心去看一个天才，或者说是神的化身，最后得来一个符合史实的荒凉结局。没法从电影角度找到它的缺点，就只好私心一下，莫扎特就是音乐的神，不完整的乐曲选段远不及他作品神韵的万分之一
