Critics Get It Wrong Again

Rating: 9/10 (4 March 2018)

Wonderful songs, genuinely emotional performances, and a stellar cast elevate this popcorn musical far above average. Zac Efron and Zendaya shine in their roles, and Hugh Jackman successfully carries the lead. We don't spend much time with each character. However, the lack of depth is made up for by the inventive and surprising songwriting and the heartfelt performances from the cast. Certainly worth a watch - if you love musicals there's a lot for you here.
