Hyper And Cluttered Film With Some Redeeming Factors

Rating: 5/10 (30 November 2011)

This is a film that I have been hearing nothing but such great things about the famous movie Moulin Rouge so naturally I just had to check it out. But after watching it I am really starting to wonder if I saw the same movie.
The film is about Christian played by Ewan MacGreggor who goes to a Broadway theater Known as Moulin Rouge. The Star Singer Satine played by Nicole Kidman who is the star the keeps everybody coming back. The two find themselves in madly in love(Trust me I should know because they say it every 5 seconds) and work together to save the theater from being demolished.
This is a very poorly shot film. Whoever edited this must have been hopped up on Starbucks and Tic-Tacs because every shot lasts about 2-5 seconds. The Characters are very odd and very strange for a film set in 1899. Speaking of why is it that in a film that is set in 1899 do we have Christina Agulera songs? But All of the stuff done with Ewan MacGreggor and Nicole Kidman are very well done and are two wonderful singer. But that is not enough for me to like this film like everyone else.
Rated PG-13 For Sexual Content.
2hrs 8min/128min.
