Beautiful Picture

Rating: 10/10 (26 November 2010)

Yeah, This movie was full of every possible cliché you can think of, and awesomely predictable, but I love every minute of it. The costumes were fabulous, the sets amazing, the music out of this world, and plot enjoyable enough. This was just you classic run of the mill"Feel Good movie." It's Not Shakespeare, but a delight none the less. I don't think this was written to be a real deep movie, just fun and entertaining, which it definitely accomplished. The musical numbers often played out like a live show, which left most movie goers clapping and screaming in the theater (which tickled me to no end because, they can't hear you silly people). I thoroughly enjoyed Burlesque and felt I definitely got my money's worth. I will go see it again before it leaves theaters, because that is where the most enjoyment can be gleaned in my opinion. Also as a warning: Be prepared to leave the movie and go shell out 12 bucks for the soundtrack, because it's almost inevitably your next stop. Kisses Darlings.
