Brilliant, wonderful, fantastic

Rating: 10/10 (22 January 2018)

I didn't have an IMDB account before now but felt the need to sign up so I could write this review. I went in to this movie as a tag on to the kids - not really wanting to see it and certainly not expecting anything much. Boy - what a ride. What a wonderful, wonderful movie. The acting - superb, the singing - Hugh Jackman/Zac Efron/"Jenny Lind" (both actor and singer)/Michelle Williams/Keala Settle/Zendaya - brilliant (incl. the barman!). The music - wow. Simply wow! Absolutely superb. The dancing - fantastic. The messages - clear but not nauseating. Oh wow...there are just not enough superlatives to describe this wonderful movie. The way this movie has been crafted is excellent. From the opening scene to the very end. Brilliant.
We've already bought tickets to see it again, downloaded the soundtrack and waiting with baited breath to buy the blu-ray. BUT - see it on the big screen first. Absolutely well worth it.
Ignore the critics - we're the ones that count (the ones who push the box office takings up!). This movie is now my all time favourite.
Superbly executed....
