Hmmm...my jury's out on this film

Rating: Null/10 (4 June 2001)

Baz Luhrmann clearly creates a world aimed at the adolescence of the world, which can be a problem considering that most young people don't know what Moulin Rouge is or how to correctly pronounce it (a distinction they share with Nicole Kidman and Christina Aguilera et al). His rocket fire cuts and flashy glamour make the movie a very long music video, not a Hollywood musical, and it seems that the only musical Hollywood will produce is more of the same of Moulin Rouge. Oh well...at least the cinematography was good.
