Brilliant, Emotion Invoking.

Rating: 10/10 (8 April 2018)

This movie is brilliant. Hugh Jackman and the rest of the cast are perfect. The lip syncing is so good you can't tell. The soundtrack is incredible. This movie invokes a variety of emotional responses every time I watch it. That doesn't happen with Hollywood films much anymore. This one is a gem. I only wish they had stayed historically accurate and not shown Barnum romantically infatuated with Jenny Lind. History says it was never more than business and I hate they disgraced their marriage in the movie. Barnum deeply loved his wife and I wish that had been celebrated the entire movie. I can handle the other unfactual adds, but this one makes a false statement about something that did exist, a beautiful marriage portrayed as troubled. That's the only con though. I can't even ding it a star though as what they do show you is so believable. Hugh Jackman is so believable. The rest of this movie gives me chills numerous times. It pulls my heart and thrills me. They captured a wonder. I love it.
