The producers know what the critics will say and they are in the movie

Rating: 9/10 (29 December 2017)

Remember there's this critic in the Barnum show? Isn't this exactly the same as the critics we have today. Seems to me that the producers cheekily and deliberately added the critic character to make fun of the critics we have today. Hahaha.... This is a great family movie. Hugh Jackman is a class on his own. Zac Efron did well too. Michelle Williams, Zendaya and Rebecca Ferguson also performed really well. Keala is also great. Combined with powerful Oscar winning lyricists and composers Pasek and Paul, no wonder this movie is nominated for Best Motion Picture in the upcoming Golden Globe awards. I'm glad the judges aren't blind or deaf. My only criticism is that it is too short for a musical movie and some scenes seem a bit too rushed. Other than that, this is a great movie for this festive season.
