An "unbiased" opinion

Rating: 10/10 (26 August 2001)

I am obsessed with this film. I cannot stop thinking about it, singing the music, dreaming about it. When I saw the movie for the first time, I said that I would not go back to see it again because it was TOO much! Too depressing, too agitating, too visually stimulating, too cacophonous! But, that I might return to see it just to hear music. I have seen the film a total of 13 times before it left Hawaii and I would continue to see it if it were still playing here. The story is beautiful. The writers have done a wonderful job. I cannot imagine any other director doing this movie in any other way than how Baz directed it. Nicole and Ewan are magical. I cannot praise Ewan's singing abilities enough. He has such a beautiful voice! This is truly a "Spectacular Spectacular"!!!
