The most unmusical musical I've ever heard

Rating: 3/10 (26 February 2008)

Jesus Christ Superstar. Annie. Evita. Even 'Tommy' and surely Buffy's Once More, With Feeling. These are all musicals with lots of musicality in them. There's a melody, there are some catchy tunes, there are some dramatic heartbreaking songs.
Really. To make such a musical, and all songs are so ... devoid of any melody, a catchy tune ... it's an achievement.
Not so for this dragon. Literally all the melodies were forced, unmelodious, suffered from an to high word-ratio per line, and sounded like an amateurs idea what a musical should sound like. It was rather like French classical music: there's no discernible line, no thread, no nothing. It was like practice singing, see how high you can go, and how fast, and then vary it to your own liking. No flow whatsoever.
Maybe it's all too highbrow for me, maybe they thought it was too easy to make an accessible tune.
The graphics in the beginning were also quite horrible. Why must everything be CGI'ed? Be brave sometime and spend some money on aniamatronics or puppets, enough with these cartoons already!
I suppose the acting was adequate, but I wouldn't know, I was too distracted by the awful music.
