Ewan McGregor and whole cast are fabulous!

Rating: 10/10 (3 January 2002)

Moulin Rouge! may be highly regarded as a nonsense picture but if you really immerse yourself in the characters and realize that it IS a musical, the reaction you are left with is total aw.
Besides being hilariously funny, Moulin Rouge! is a deeply moving story and touches my heart very closely. The songs are performed magnificantly and the acting by the whole cast is outstanding. Putting aside the fact that Ewan McGregor is my favorite actor, he and Nicole Kidman do a wonderful job of expressing the facial characteristics and acting qualities that bring this movie to life. Do not take other's opinions, see this movie for yourself and decide. This movie was not meant for you to feel as if you were "there" but actually is crafted to remind you that you are watching and enjoying a movie...a very superb movie.
Keep heading for the stars Ewan!!!!!!
