OK, I'm a huge Christina/Cher fan. When i heard that there was going to be a film featuring both of them, I was hoping it would do them justice. My verdict, an overwhelming yes!!! This is just a brilliant film which has humour, pathos, great music, and a great story. I have watched this film many times and it always cheers me up, and what are films for but to make you engage with them on whatever level works for you. The music is just amazing, my only regret is that there is not more to enjoy. Christina's voice is so powerful and combined with Cher, who should have had more songs, is just genius. Stanley Tucci is the standout male performer who, with Cher, enjoys a great double act with great dialogue. If you haven't seen this film, do so without delay!!!
