Extremely brilliant

Rating: 10/10 (11 June 2001)

Just when I thought Baz Luhrman couldn't make another movie as great as Romeo and Juliet, he makes Moulin Rouge. Moulin Rouge is easily so far this years best film and movie soundtrack. The music is what makes this movie. You'll laugh during the Like A Virgin number, cry when Kidman sings One Day I'll Fly Away. All in all, this is an extremely brilliant film. I would say this is the best musical of all time. Not only, musically is it a great movie, but the acting is superb. Kidman and Broadbent are brilliant, McGregor gives an honest performance, Roxburgh is scary, and Leguizamo was decent. Kidman and McGregor also have great singing voices. The rest of the cast have decent voices, (except Roxburgh, but he doesn't sing much.) This should get nominations at the Oscars for best song (a couple of them), makeup, costume, art direction, sound, score, editing, cinematography, original screenplay, supporting actor (Broabent), actress (Kidman), director, and picture( Which I hope it wins)
