What a completely fantastical film

Rating: 10/10 (10 December 2002)

that deserves every accolade that comes it's way. It is the most astonishing and fresh film experience and I have total respect to Baz Luhrman for having had the vision and the energy and commitment to make this alter world. Nicole Kidman shines just like the diamond's that she sings about and the cinematographer not only kicked ass with the whole film but also photographed her so perfectly that I am sure that this will be one of those movies that will eventually become a classic and be enjoyed by generations to come. Ewan McGregor was exceptionally good too. I never would have imagined Ewan McGregor and Kidman cast opposite each others as love interests but the chemistry between them is absolutely frenetic. A gourgeous viewing experience and a totally mind blowing, satisfying ride. Baz Luhrman rules!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
