Oscar-worthy

Rating: 9/10 (19 July 2008)

Musicals have always been a favorite of mine: from "Chicago" to "The Sound of Music," I've never been one to dismiss seeing one.
This light-hearted little gem of a movie looked very promising in previews and didn't disappoint on screen. The cast couldn't have been chosen better, even knowing that the critics had their say; saying that it was a "muddled performance." (Whatever that was supposed to mean.) There was the little matter of who originally fathered Sophie, but other than that minor hitch in the plot line, I think this movie more than lived up to its Broadway counterpart.
I give this movie a 9 out of 10.
