     • This film serves as an enduring record of Prince's talent and charisma, but only devoted fans will tolerate the disjointed, clichéd narrative and inept acting that surround his performances. PURPLE RAIN can also be taken as a record of 1980s boom-time self-indulgence, narcissism, male peacockery, and female self-exploitation.

   Did Purple Rain play well in 1984?

   • This didn’t play too well in 1984, and it plays even worse today. As a love story, "Purple Rain" is far from a success. Granted, "Purple Rain" tries to show The Kid changing his perception of women, most notably in how it handles the epic title song.
