A Fun Movie

Rating: 7/10 (7 June 2018)

The Greatest Showman is a fun movie to watch. It's a feel good movie that it suitable for the family to watch. The soundtrack is great, the cast is talented and it's pleasing to the eyes. However, it does bother me that unlike a lot of musicals set in the past, the music does not fit the era. The choreography and the music is not something you would see in the late 1800s. The film itself is strictly ok, a bit too fast paced in places so we don't get to see much character development, the plot is standard and entirely predictable. A bit lacklustre. It's not Oscar worthy but it is a really enjoyable film, a total guilty pleasure. This is a great film to watch after a bad day!
