The music is great, the story is simplistic

Rating: 8/10 (28 December 2018)

The Greatest Showman is much like P.T. Barnum's shows-the music, choreography and presentation are spectacular, so even if the story is simplistic and the performances are hit & miss, it's still an entertaining movie that makes you smile. This isn't a deep, dramatic film for critiquing adults, it's a fun musical for the whole family with memorable songs and a good message.
