Summary: Bad bad bad
Review: This is one of the noisiest most obnoxious movies I have ever seen.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Magical!
Review: I was enchanted by this movie. The star-crossed lovers, fabulous dance scenes, beautiful sets (yes, they are campy, but fit the movie) were a visual feast. The anachronistic music selections were startling at first but charmingly juxtaposed in one of the most original and entertaining movies I've seen.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A Must Own DVD
Review: This is the best DVD I have seen. It was put together by the Director himself. A first for a DVD. The additional features are great. The music superb. With this movie, you either love it or hate, there's no in-between. Hopefully, you'll love it as I did. It is now my favorite movie, ever!

The DVD would make a great Valentine's Day gift.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A Treat For the Eyes and the Heart
Review: This movie absolutely blew me away! I was stunned to tears with just the opening song, "Nature Boy". The music was beautiful and cleverly picked out to follow the story line. The costumes were dazzling and the whole movie made my eyes tingle with delight(and with some tears). I highly recommend this movie to anyone who enjoys a good love story and musicals. This is not one of those "lame" Disney-fied musicals. Don't be suprised if you clap at the end... I did.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Love It or Hate It, This is a Visual Masterpiece
Review: For the reviewer below who mentions they'd "rather eat needles" than experience Moulin Rouge, I say ... send your ideas to Baz for his next flick. This is a sensational, one-of-a-kind period piece that actually requires attention, some appreciation of pop culture, and a willingness on the audience's part to go along for what is admittedly, a wild heck-of-a-ride. Anyone who doesn't like it would be well advised to stay away from anything remotely related to Bob Fosse, not to mention incoherent-but-brilliant classics like Apocalypse Now, anything Python, or 2001: A SPace Odessey. Landmark films rarely generate unanimous praise AND audience acceptance - instead, divide the audience into camps, conquering its proponents and infuriating its detractors. If nothing else, it makes great dinner conversation and can be contemplated on so many levels, no two perceptions will ever be alike.

Come to think of it, eating needles doesn't seem like a bad idea...I wonder whether Baz thought of it?

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Broadway Musical
Review: A true feast for the eyes and ears. Great use of popular music,costume, and plot. We need more of these fun, colorful musicals. Nicole Kidman did a wonderful job. I really thought I would hate it, but I watched and listened and loved it.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: The Amazing Moulin Rouge
Review: I thought this movie was memorizing. The music and acting was superb. Baz Luhrmann is a movie genius. Who know that Ewan McGregor and Nicole Kidman had such incredible singing voices? I did not see this movie in the theatre, I wish now I would have. I enjoyed this movie so much that I went out and purchased the DVD as well as the sound track.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Moulin Rough is a Rough Ride.
Review: From an honest audience point of view :
I can't believe how rough the story line is and that it still got away from the critics. I wouldn't classify this as a musical, it is simply a film with a few great old songs thrown between the scenes. Nicole looks great and posseses a passable singing voice. The same can be said about Ewan who is well chosen for his part, but his high note became a bit irritating after awhile. But inspite of all this negative criticism, I found the film is visually exciting. I will definitely see it again and again.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: B-A-D !
Review: I saw this video on Christmas Day, and was looking forward to seeing what all the hubub was about. I had heard that they incorporated contemporary songs into the film but set it in Paris cir.1900 and thought that it might be interesting.
Words cannont express how bad this film is. Yes, the costumes were pretty, and the cinamatography was inventive; but there's no way it could make up for the lame plot and dreadful dialogue. I kept having this image in my mind that when the writers couldn't think of anything for the characters to say, they just turned on the radio for "inspiration".
I don't think we even got through the first half before we all were so confused, but none of us wanted to suffer again through the scenes we had already scene. It's too bad to, Nicole & Ewan are very talented.
Long story short - don't waste your time.

Rating: 1 stars
