Dangerous Game (also known as Snake Eyes) is a 1993 film directed by Abel Ferrara starring Madonna, Harvey Keitel and James Russo.
The film opened in US theaters on November 19, 1993 and was trashed by critics. It gained a favorable place among Madonna's fans and critics throughout the years though as the film probably was too experimental back when it was first released. Slant Magazine's Ed Gonzalez called the film Madonna's only full-length masterpiece (aside from her album Erotica, which was released the year before).[1]
Madonna herself was apparently not happy with the film. She was quoted as saying: "Even though it's a shit movie and I hate it, I am good in it." She also mentioned how the actual script was much better and her part more strongly written. However director Abel Ferrara changed a lot of it in the editing room.
This was the first production by Madonna's Maverick Picture Company, a division of the newly formed entertainment company Maverick.
