My Favourite Movie Of The Year

Rating: 10/10 (9 January 2018)

WOW WOW WOW
Hands down my favourite movie of the year!! After seeing it, I'm unbelievable disappointed the movie or Hugh Jackman didn't win the Golden Globes. I'm hoping it's nominated for Oscars, as it deserves to be.
Plot In A Paragraph: Celebrates the birth of show business, and tells of P.T Barnum (Hugh Jackman) a visionary who rose from nothing to create a spectacle that became a worldwide sensation.
My screening was only half full for a dinner time showing, but what impressed me was the variety in the crowd! For the first time in years (in fact I'd probably have to go back to Dances With Wolves) have I seen that many OAP's in the cinema!! It really has appealed to people of all ages, as there were teenagers, couples and a Nanna and her granddaughter next to me and my son.
The acting was brilliant, the songs were catchy and the dance routines were great. This is Me and Rewrite The Stars will probably be heard a lot on talent shows and Karaoke's across the world!! They were the stand out tracks for me.
I'm really hoping Jackman gets an Oscar nomination for a project he tried to get made for 7 years. I have to admit I'm warming to Zac Efron. I dismissed him as the guy from High School Musical with a six pack. Then I seen him on Graham Norton and he seemed like a really nice guy, and he was great here. Zendaya doing all her own stunts, sings, dances and trapeze's up a storm, one to one out for I think!! (She reminded me of Samantha Barks in Les Miserables) However of the supporting cast I was most impressed with Keale Settle who sings This Is Me!! What a voice.
I'm so glad I seen this on the big screen!! I urge everyone to do the same.
