A slap-happy movie, for a simple-minded audience

Rating: 3/10 (17 June 2018)

The music lacked variation, was obnoxiously cheerful, and the lyrics mainly consisted of the typical "reach for the stars" nonsense, one has come to expect from modern musicals.
Although the base story had nothing to do with diversity and racism, these Hollywood pawns somehow managed to shovel it in there anyway. I did not appreciate the negative portrayal of white people, and men in particular.
Interestingly, they somehow managed to ignore the fact that this particular white man exploited "freaks" for profit.
The critics were absolutely right on this one. Talented actors could not save this dumpsterfire of a production. I regret wasting my time, and I am saddened that so many users have such poor taste.
