WOW - a great musical and great movie

Rating: 10/10 (30 December 2006)

Fantastic musical and movie! Way better than I thought it would be, and it surely should win Best Picture if Chicago won in 2002. Music was never that great, but the performances take it to the top. Jennifer Hudson makes me thank American Idol if not watch it, and I may even become a Beyonce fan -- she was great. Great direction from Bill Condon, and really solid performances from Jamie Foxx and especially Eddie Murphy, who may very well earn himself a best supporting actor Oscar. Jennifer Hudson may well win a supporting Oscar herself. Of course, there is bound to be lots of competition.... But this is a great film. Surprisingly GOOD.
