Overwhelming visual feast and awesome musical numbers

Rating: 10/10 (12 June 2001)

Well every now and then a movie comes along which blows me away, I think the last one to do this was Forrest Gump.. Evita came close but just fell short of amazing.. Moulin Rouge never lets up with its zooming cinematography and combine this with the searing score and electric on screen chemistry between the two stars, the goose bumps never seem to stop! I think I'll be seeing this again and again and again.. Ewan was a bit of a surprise with his heartfelt performance of Elton's "Your Song" and Nicole shone with her previously unknown pipes. All in all, WOW!!
