Hollywood Reviews:
The first good set of remixes from "American Life" 
2007-10-10 - The second single from Madonna's worst-selling-album-ever yielded some pretty good mixes, specifically those from Jacques Lu Cont (aka Stuart Price, who later produced Madonna's "Confessions On A Dance Floor" album) and Paul Oakenfold. The video was also really cool, but due to a lawsuit alleging copyright infringement, the video wasn't seen much and will most likely never be seen in public release.
Interesting ! 
2006-09-29 - I never really liked this song much from the American life album, but being a loyal Madonna fan,I bought the cd single regardless.
I was very glad that I did, as there were 2 really great remixes on it that I really, really liked.
They are:
1.Jaques Lu Cont remix
2. Deepsky's home sweet home vocal remix.
If you were never really into this song, buy the cd single for the remixes I have mentioned, and it will have been money well spent.
madonna's greatest remixes 
2006-07-25 - first: i do love the album american life
second: hollywood is not the best pick for a second single, I'm so stupid would have been so much better, i can understand that she wanted to come out with something friendly after the unworthy flop of (the fantastic IMHO) american life single, still if someone doesn't like AL certainly won't like HW either
the HW video is one of her least managed video ever (next to recent sorry and get together), the radio edit is completely senseless, cutting off the push the button dont push the button gig which was the best part of the song
but these remixes... oh... i love them!
3 excellent club mixes, one done by oakenfold, this is the least interesting, i prefer his sorry and WIFLFAG remixes, it's still 100%, the C&C glam mix doesn't sound glammish for me, but it's much dirtier and more danceable than the oakenfold mix, cool, but the point definetly goes to deepsky, the way it handles the push the putton part is way beyond anything!
the remix done by mr Stuart Price (played on the RI-tour as a projection, and also on the memorable but unnecessary kissing of MTV VMA) is very retro, not Price's best work, still enjoyable with clever vocal sampling and reconstruction, the micronauts remix is the best mix here, very techno, very messy, sampling madonna's breathing but cutting off most of the vocals, which i like.
apart from the radio edit all songs are 5/5. great job.
Another great Madonna remix CD 
2006-06-14 - Madonna does these best and chooses great DJ's. Very listenable -- great for the gym too!
the best single from "american life" 
2006-05-07 - this is truly one of madonna's most underrated single...i think it suffered unfairly after the american life single/pulled-video backlash. the hollywood single cover was, in my opinion, the most aesthetically pleasing cover of all of the singles from this album.
unfortunately, i believe hollywood is the last *great* single madonna has released (up to and including her recent "sorry" and "get together" singles).
fortunately, madonna is NOWHERE near the end of her career. we will hopefully see a single in the near future with more experimental remixes.
