Not bad, to be a musical

Rating: 6/10 (24 November 2001)

Not being fond of either romantic films or musicals, I must say Moulin Rouge lived up to my expectations. Early in the movie I was a bit bored by too much light and dancing and the rest of elements of a musical but, fortunately, things improved before long. It was the first time I really paid attention to a Nicole Kidman's performance (Yes, it's true), and the same can be said for Ewan MacGregor, who I hardly knew something about, aside from his appearance in Star Wars.
Though I have liked Moulin Rouge, my opinion on musicals hasn't changed.
6/10.
