Summary: Imagination to the Infinite Degree
Review: This is a movie that one has to see not only with their eyes but with all their senses. You must be open and willing to enjoy the movie for what it is....entertainment. To you love struck people....you owe it to yourself to see this movie at least once. People who do not enjoy musicals leave the theater in this magical place where the Moulin Rouge lives and find themselves singing and humming the familiar mixes from the soundtrack. EVERYONE at one point or another during the show can identify with a character, with a situation and find themselves wanting to believe that all will end happily! But will it??? You decide for yourself. Enjoy one of the best films ever, in my opinion.

Summary: I love Moulin Rouge.
Review: In response to some of the negative reviews of Moulin Rouge: 1) If you know you don't like musicals, you should not have seen it in the first place. 2) No one ever claimed that this is supposed to be a serious, realistic film. It is pure fantasy. To those who were expecting reality, you should have done your homework before going to the theater. 3) You can't make a good judgement on a film if you walked out after 15 minutes, or 45 minutes for that matter. 4) To whoever wrote the review containing the line "Why did the dwarf have a lisp?": The "dwarf" was Henri Toulouse-Lautrec, an impressionist painter and frequent customer at the real Moulin Rouge. He was a real person. He really was that short, and he really did speak with a lisp. Please go to college and learn these things.I have not read one good reason why people disliked Moulin Rouge. I think if people could just once open their minds a teeny bit and let their jaded cynicism go, they could enjoy this film. Have a little fun, people. Don't be such snobs.

Summary: Turth, Beauty, Freedom, Love and more....
Review: If you want an exhilarating piece of movie magic, this is the movie to see. Not only does Moulin Rouge combine wonderful music and singing with breathtaking sets and effects, it has two wonderful and capable stars in Nicole Kidman and Ewan McGregor. Both actors show their strength and vulnerability within their characters and give us a real love story. I was completely captivated by the story and its style, frenetic musical numbers combined with tender and passionate love. It's a movie I'll always remember and cherish for its raw power and honesty.

Summary: HURRY! Don't Miss Moulin Rouge
Review: If you haven't already seen Moulin Rouge, you'd better hurry 'cos it doesn't look like it will be around much longer! I'm already having withdrawl symptoms after seeing it more times than I care to say - and will see it as many times as I can as long as it is in the theaters!! What can I say about this film that hasn't already been said? It is an amazing, fantastic, spectacular roller coaster ride of emotions that will leave you breathless and running back for more. Moulin Rouge IS unlike any movie you have ever been to, but more than that is an EXPERIENCE. You cannot just watch this film and appreciate all the varied aspects - its something you have to FEEL. Unfortunately, there are those who just don't get it and I feel sad for them because of what they are missing. Thank you, thank you to all the cast & crew, but especially Baz who is a pure genius!! Also to Nicole and Ewan (who is such a cutie you'll fall in love!). They put their hearts & souls into this movie and it shows. It is a Spectacular spectacle of color, music, truth, beauty, freedom - and above all things - LOVE! Love is like oxygen, love is a many splendored thing, all you need is LOVE! Okay, I'm getting carried away. Be sure to get the CD - it will hold you over between theater visits - and until the DVD/Video comes out! (Now I have to go & buy a DVD player!!) What else can I say, but go see it AGAIN & AGAIN while you still can-can!!

Summary: Obnoxious nonsense
Review: This movie is a pretentious nonsense, stealing just about every visual element of the great European directors likes Federico Fellini or movies such as "Le Voyage dans la Lune, (A Trip to the Moon), turn of the century french paintings, even Cabaret and many others, it could be very long list. Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec ? Ah, please ! (I assume, those who found it original, don't know what I'm talking about.)Unfortunately the visual galore doesn't rescue the film, the story is a cliche, the cartoonish acting and frenetic pace is down right annoying; the fairy tale-like scenes are over the top and they are just not funny at all. The soundtrack seems to be a very bad match. Right up with duds like Wild Wild West, The Avengers and The Mummy. Yikes !

Summary: Eclectic/Operatic Moulin Rouge
Review: Moulin Rouge is such a delight for the eyes and ears. There is so much going on at once, you'll need to see the movie at least two or three times to catch it all. I didn't want it to end and when it did, I wanted to immediately see it again (but I was with friends and couldn't). The acting was superb, the dancing was spectacular, the music was terrific; Even though the love story line was predictable, I loved it! It was beautifully done, like a modern Italian opera - romantic, tragic and very emotional. Go see it and judge for yourself.

Summary: This was SPECTACULAR SPECTACULAR!
Review: I just got back from seeing this movie at the theatre and I can't put into words how good it is. If you don't like musicals, you shouldn't go see this--it is very much a modern day musical. Nicole Kidman proves to be a magician of many tricks once again. Her talent is heightened to a new level. Ewan McGregor shines very brightly, even in the light of Ms. Kidman. He is gorgeous and talented, all in one. They both have extremely pleasant voices to listen to. All in all, everything was awesome, to say the least. Be ready for continual business on the screen-- your eyes really don't get a break throughout the movie. The plot moved along nicely, not lacking for anything, not dragging. I didn't once look at my watch, like I do in many recent movies. As soon as this comes out to pre-order, I'll be ordering it! It is a MUST HAVE in every music-buff's collection!

Summary: People can be so mean
Review: Maybe I'm just weird but, I've always prefered tragic love to the happily ever after scenario. Moulin Rouge is weird, but I'm a weird person, so I liked it.
