It made me smile

Rating: 7/10 (14 June 2019)

It made me smile. That might not sound very significant but I mean that I was smiling nearly all the way through. Once the film gets going, it is fun, enjoyable, charismatic and has a style close to the original but with just enough differences to stand out. My biggest criticisms are the ending went on longer than was necessary and some of the musical numbers didn't quite have the same oomph as in the original. But they still made me smile and I still got a kick out of them. I won't be buying any home release versions but I'm glad I saw it on the big screen and if I'm channel surfing one day in a few years and stumble across it then I will happily watch it again.
