Summary: Love is a many splendered thing
Review: Love is a many splendered thing. Love lift you up where you belong. All you need is LOVE. From the best movie I have ever seen. I have seen it FOUR times. Wonderful voices, and great acting. This movie has got to be the best I have ever seen. It made me laugh, it made me cry, it was everything that a movie could be. Ok, some of you might think it wasn't that good, but I do. Thanks for making it, I loved it. Sincerely,

Summary: this movie has it all
Review: The new Moulin Rouge has got everything that makes a movie entertaining and a joy to watch; it's funny, romantic, sad(take your tissues). All the people in it are people you like-even the "bad guy" is a fine/funny fellow.This is going to be-in spite of the bad press-a classic keeper that will be bought by the people who seem to be right about movies much more often than the "critics"who get it wrong so often that I wonder anyone ever pays any attention to them.I personally use them as a barometer;what they pan I go see, what they are esctatic about I shun.This is just another example of how wrong they can be.

Summary: Moulin Rouge is the best movie ever!
Review: When I first went to see this movie, I didn't know what to expect. I just went and saw it because I heard that the song, Lady Marmalade would be in it. The song isn't in the movie, but this is a wonderful story about true love, and how it will last forever. The story is about a poor writer, named Christian, who moves to France to be part of the Bohemian Revolution. He meets other writers there, and they write a play together called, "Spectacular, Spectacular." They don't have enough money to fund it though. So, they decide to go to the Moulin Rouge and try to convince the head stripper there, Satine, to convince the owner of the Moulin Rouge to fund money for the play.
That night, the men go to the club, and think they have arranged a private meeting with Satine. But, there is also a rich duke there that night who will pay a hefty sum to sleep with Satine that night. When the owner of the Moulin Rouge goes to show Satine the duke, he is hidden from view and instead she sees Christian, and thinks he is the duke. So, she takes him into the back room and tries to seduce him. He doesn't understand why she is seducing him though, since he went there to recite some lines from the play for her. He sings her a love song, and they fall in love.
That is just the beginning of the story, but I don't want to ruin it, but, it is really good. I would recommend it to anyone!

Summary: Moulon Rouge - a masterpiece
Review: Moulon Rouge is an absolute work of art from the cinamatography, to the costumes, to the acting, to the music and singing, to the story line. It is one of the best, if not THE BEST, film I have ever seen. It's got depths within depths. It is a work of art about art that incorporates past art into a web of the fantastical the beautiful and the haunting. Even if you only watch it for the surface level love story it is excellent, but if you look deeper into the underlying themes of the Bohemian revolution and it's ideals of artistry, truth, and love then this film becomes a masterpiece.

Summary: The best movie I've seen (or heard) in a long time
Review: Moulin Rouge was such a tremendously artistic, energetic, beautiful movie that I ran back to see it again as soon as I could. Its theme was refreshingly uncomplicated, a gorgeous movie about love and honesty. This movie dares to be idealistic when it's definately not in style to be. I must say that it was a welcome change of pace from the so-called "edgy" movies we've been seeing a lot of lately. This movie is also visually dazzling! There are so many colors, details to be seen, and dance numbers to be enjoyed that your eyes are never bored. The cinematography is very well done, blue light gently evokes the sadness of a lost love, red light for the madness of the Moulin Rouge. As for the music, Nicole Kidman has a pretty voice and handles the songs well. But Ewan McGregor just plain blew me away!! He's got such a gorgeous voice! I think he deserves praise for his fabulous acting as well. He's truly a gifted actor, and this is truly a wonderful movie.

Summary: The best movie I've seen this year.
Review: This is the best movie I've seen this year and it's one the greatest that I've seen in my life. Everything is perfect, the direction, the acting, the singing. It's been quite a time since a musical hit the screens and Baz Luhrmann has done a great job bringing back to life this genre. This movie deserves a million awards and lots of money, for being the great movie it is. Better than ... Pearl Harbor, Jurassic Park III, Planet Of The Apes, etc. That all have grossed over 160M only in the US. Mindless movies. This movie will touch you deeply and will make you want to go watch it a couple of times, I'm hoping for the DVD to come out soon.
