Excellent...a classic musical for the new generation!

Rating: 10/10 (5 June 2001)

I would like to say, I'm YOUNG, and I still loved this movie! Sure, I'm not a fan of older musicals...I find them very dull. Anyways, I really wanted to see this one, and it was my most hyped movie of 2001. And it lived up to my expectations- the whirling costumes, all-over direction, and lively acting made it a classic. My loving it shows that even the new generation can appreciate this visionary achievement(last year's best film, by far, was CROUCHING TIGER,HIDDEN DRAGON). Nicole Kidman and Ewan McGregor did great, and their singing was prefect- they are both 'honest to goodness' stars. I also really liked Jim Broadbent as harry Zidler- his character was really funny and full of energy. So everyone, go see this movie: it has been wonderfully directed, designed, and cast, and it is one of the best movies of the past years. It is a visual and emotional triumph, and everyone should recognize it for the masterpiece it is! 10/10
