Moulin Rouge (Double Digipack)

Summary: beau film
Review: I absolutely loved this film. Unfortunately, I did not see it in a New York theatre like the other reviewers. If you are not seeing this in a city that has residents that do not appreciate this type of art you may find yourself the odd one out. I had to endure supercilious comments from the audience, but I watched as best I could. I recommend this movie to anyone who is able to look at the use of popular music in a movie set in the 1900's as an adventure. The visuals are a feast for the senses and the music only adds to the enjoyment. I have already asked amazon.com to inform me when this is released on DVD so I can watch it in the privacy of my home without any interruptions.

Review: I saw this movie the day after it came to Theaters in the U.S. For those who haven't seen it yet you will be sorry if you don't. Only one word describes this movie; Brillant.The visual effects were amazing and I would seen it again and again and again if I could. See this movie, you won't regret it.

Summary: Another winner for Baz Luhrmann
Review: Baz Luhrmann (director of Romeo and Juliet, and Strictly Ballroom) has the most amazing sense of tragicomedy. Just when you think you can't cry anymore, there is something funny that will break the tension. When the movie was over, both my brother and I sat and watched all the credits because we had to come back to where we were. From the first note you are drawn in and feel like you are part of the Moulin Rouge. The characters were perfect! I don't think I have ever seen a better performance from Nicole Kidman or Ewan MacGregor. Not only am I going to buy the movie when it comes out on DVD, but I will go back and see it again in the theater. A must see!

Summary: Please, see this or your life is not complete
Review: Ok, I haven't written a review in a while, but this deserves as much praise as anything. It is a must-see movie, even if you are rovinato(a rather interesting italian term meaning"Psychologically abused to the point of being broken",use it on your friends) and somehow do not enjoy this masterpiece, you must see it for its sheer originality. Is it like nothing you've ever seen before, or quite possibly will again. U know the story, all I'll say is "Old Setting, New Music", including the cancan remixed by Fatboy Slim. I thought Fight Club was the most original film I'd experienced, but this may top it. So go and see it, 5/5. 10/10. 100%. Perfect sixes, whatever you want to call it, its da bomb. U R THE WEAKEST LINK. GOODBYE (But Moulin Rouge is very strong ;).

Summary: Awsome Movie
Review: Ok, all you love birds, if you are all looking for a movie to see this is the one. Just saw it yesterday and ot was the best. The music the effects and the plot are all magnificent. The music itself was superb. The mixing of Marilyn Monroe's "Diamonds are a girls best friend" with Madonna's "Material Girl" was the best. This is a movie that I would see again. Now a word of advice for all of you that cry at movies, TAKE SOME TISSUE you will need it.

Summary: Moulin Rouge - Spectacular Spectacular!
Review: The opening of Moulin Rouge can only be described as electrifying, intensely eye-catching and dazzling! The music, dance, movement and colourful costumes are just amazing and the most glamourous is Nicole Kidman's first appearance and rendition of Diamonds are a girls best friend. The story is somewhat modern but the music would have to be one of the best features, and brings the film to life. Nicole and Ewan's vocals are stunning but my favourite would have to be the costumes; corsets and suspenders underneath beautiful ball gown-style dresses reflecting the glamour of Paris 1899. The love story element may appear to be soppy to some but although the ending is already revealed to you early in the film, the intensity of the final few minutes (after a spectacular show featuring a wonderful performance by both Nicole and Ewan) was enough to leave everyone in the cinema totally speechless, tears in the eyes. Moulin Rouge would have to be one of the best films I have ever seen and Baz Luhrmann is to be congratulated for his work. Ewan's performance was wonderful and it's hard to find a word suitable to describe Nicole's dazzling and unmatchable performance as Satine. Both the director and star turned in wonderful efforts and are both admired and applauded by fellow Australians/Fans. If you haven't seen it or have doubts I urge you to see this faboulous musical film spectacular!

Summary: Mesmerizing beginning spirals slowly to boring mess.
Review: What started out as a fun, rocking, visually stunning beginning which made me think I had wandered into the next "Rocky Horror Picture Show" slowly put me to sleep and left me wondering how much time was left before it would finally end and I could go home to bed. The ongoing "theme" of using several different popular songs throughout the movie quickly became tiring and then irritating. I felt like I was watching a musical medly from some badly performed Academy Awards number. The tragic love story was poorly scripted and the fact that Saline (Kidman) was dying was so overdone that by the time it reached its inevitable conclusion, I had lost interest and felt no emotional involvement (such as I did in Titanic, for example). The pacing of the movie was plodding. There was no real action, nothing to keep the story moving along and me interested in it. There were some good points though. Besides the amazing sets (which I also eventually grew tired of, sorry) Ewan McGregor sings really well (I can't really say the same for Kidman), John Leguizamo as Toulouse-Lautrec was hilarious and entertaining throughout, and the fat guy (who looked like the Wizard of Oz) playing Zidler was great. Also, the only original song in the production, "Come what May", was easily my favorite song of the movie and I think that it will go on to become a big hit this summer. Summing up, I think this movie had almost all the right stuff to be a really great and memorable movie, except that the director, who obviously put a lot of effort and care into creating this dense musical montage, forgot to start with the most basic ingredient - a script that didn't suck.

Summary: Pure Entertainment at it's finest
