It surprised me in the end

Rating: Null/10 (11 April 2003)

First I thought MOULIN ROUGE would not amaze me much. The first 15 minutes seemed very boring to me. I had imagined something different somehow. I thought it was a more serious movie, but now it seems to me like a modern fairy tale. This movie is true art, and the performances by the actors in the main roles were ingenious. Since Nicole Kidman split with Tom Cruise she's become such a charismatic actress! Great. And she can actually sing! You really have to give this movie some credit, though I must still confess that it is not my favourite type of movies. The soundtrack is amazing, by the way.
