What happens

Swept Away is a 2002 adventure romantic comedy film written and directed by Guy Ritchie; it is a remake of Lina Wertmüller's 1974 Italian film of the same name. The film stars Ritchie's then-wife Madonna and Adriano Giannini (the son of Giancarlo Giannini, the original film's lead) with a supporting cast featuring Bruce Greenwood, Jeanne Tripplehorn, and Elizabeth Banks. The film was produced by Matthew Vaughn and released theatrically by Screen Gems. The film received negative reviews from critics, who criticized Madonna's performance and described it as inferior to the original. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
