The Best Movie Musical Ever

Rating: 10/10 (22 January 2018)

I believe that the blending of such an inspiring story with a modern(ish) soundtrack brings this movie to life and raises it above all other musicals put to cinema. The film is riveting from the offset until the credits with no time to become even remotely bored, as there is always something to focus on. Many musicals have a problem with some songs just not clicking with the story and seeming disjointed however, the soundtrack to The Greatest Showman seems to fit perfectly with the story it is trying to tell. I have also listened to the soundtrack independent of the film and must honestly say that it does not contain one song that i would consider anything below great. I would highly recommend this film to all, whether they're a family or not.
