I loved it!

Rating: Null/10 (26 November 2004)

I'm sorry to see that several of you found it boring and ridiculous, but this is definitely not a movie to review if you don't like musicals. I loved it; I bought the DVD and I bought the soundtrack. Actually both my husband and I loved it. I don't think it can be compared to Rocky Horror Picture Show as they are completely different types of musicals. There is a great sense of humor and subtlety about Hedwig and, c'mon, the entire premise is rather unique. It's so nice to see something out there that's different than the usual mass-market, blockbuster stuff. And if I could, I'd have an outfit just like Hedwig wore at the end of Wig in a Box (with the long, blond Cher hair). My husband and I even played this movie for our neighbors, rather conservative types (he's ex-Navy), and they found a lot of humor in it.
But that's just me. Thanks.
