How...

Rating: 1/10 (2 January 2002)

could anyone sit through such a pitiful excuse for a musical? My first question is, if most of the lines are sung, why did they choose two actors who cannot sing? and fine, if you want famous stars, why couldn't you at least dub their singing lines so that the audience doesn't have to suffer through shrill screeches for two hours. the plot is cliched and i cannot believe that they were allowed to butcher those popular songs!! the set was overdone, everyone was overacting, and the script was lame so that the end result was a pathetic, shrill, superficial clownshow. that this movie was ever made is an embarrassment, that it is up for any awards is a sin, and that people actually enjoyed it is baffling. can't even vote on this movie until IMDB allows negative numbers.
