Summary: Moulin Rouge -- the visual stungun
Review: You sit in the chair with your Junior Mints, expecting an experimental film with outlandish costuming and idealized sentiments. But what you get instead is a passionate love story so visually stunning that it spins you around in your seat, lifts you up onto the highest point of the Eiffel Tower and drops you back down again into the depths of the Underworld. If you've ever wanted to feel a PART of a movie, this is the movie to see. Not only do you know these two characters love each other, but you feel their love. It makes them walk on clouds, and so do you. It makes them sing their hearts, and you feel it there too. See it. If only to put your eyes on a roller coaster and a cruise to the Bahamas all in two hours.

Summary: Moulin Rouge.... it just takes your breath away....
Review: I can barely *put down in words* how extraordinary this movie is. Ewan McGregor has such an amazing voice and proves how terrific of an actor and he is. And he's cute too! Nicole Kidman is excellent as Satine, a courtesan at the Moulin Rouge. She can sing well, too (but let's face it, next to Ewan, it's tough to be that great!!!) They have such * spectacular * chemistry and whenever they are on the screen together, it just makes you smile. Ewan singing "Your Song" to her is just such a good scene, he's so adorable. Besides the main love story, this movie is filled with hilarious parodies of popular songs, such as Nirvana's "Smells Like Teen Spirit" and Madonna's "Like A Virgin". If the "Like A Virgin". If that scene at least doesn't make you laugh, then I just don't know... Richard Roxbourgh plays the evil Duke, and man, do you just hate him after the movie! He is very, very convincing as a possessive, neurotic, evil character and definitely brings a very evil element to this movie. The music in this movie is just so wonderful. As I mentioned, Ewan McGregor is an extremely talented singer, and he sings a lot in the movie! It's truly a unique experience in the movie theater. I'm not guaranteeing that this movie is for everyone. But it is at least an experience. Whether it is good or bad, I leave to you! For me, it was one of the best experiences of my life!

Summary: Hooray For Musicals!!!!!!
Review: I was so pleased to see another musical on the big screen, just as I was pleased with Evita as well. I sincerely wish that there were more musicals produced nowadays...I was brought up watching "Funny Girl" and "West Side Story". I may only be 20 years old, but there's just something about a musical and this one was fabulously constructed. I loved the cinematography, as the music was superb as well. I must admit I prefer the songs in the movie that the characters sang, not so much as the songs that were done by artists themself...if i hear Lady Marmalade one more time I will scream. But in the way that this movie touched me...no other recent movie has done that as much as this one...It made me laugh and it made me cry, and it's really difficult to find a movie like that nowadays...It was beautiful.

Summary: Beautiful!!!
Review: At first when the movie started I thought it was going to be an annoying Inspector Gadget type of movie but it wasn't, it was a masterpiece. I loved this movie so much! It has beauty, the drama of the forbidden love affair, tragic death, as well as comedy/parody. This musical part of this movie gives the treatment many of the popular songs of today deserve or deserved. I really loved what they did with the music and intend on buying the sound track. Besides being visually spectacular with a rich assortment of odd and interesting characters Nicole Kidman and Ewan McGregor acted the parts so well! The intimacy they shared was incredibly captured in this film without any sex scenes (amazing, how some people can do that isn't it? ... Nicole Kidman as an actress, is not flamboyant, and the director captured her complicated personality very well. Ewan was perfect for this part also, he was kind and loving and so realistic, they type of guy anyone could fall for. I urge everyone to see this movie, it promotes Truth, Beauty and Love!

Summary: Cinematically Beautiful!!!
Review: I don't want to sound like Roger Ebert or a critic from "Good Morning America", but that's what "Moulin Rouge" is.
I LOVE Baz Lurhmann's work and his style. And I loved how they used classic songs from Madonna, Queen, and the Beatles and mixed them in.
I'm so pleased that this was a musical. I love musicals and I've been hoping Hollywood would have the guts to make another. And I have to say, the actors do a GREAT job w/ their singing.
The movie itself is a heavy and the end is depressing, but it is one of my most favorites. BAZ, IF YOU'RE READING THIS, THANK YOU FOR MAKING THIS MOVIE!!!

Summary: A Miracle of a Movie
Review: I had given up hope for original movies. I was spellbound in a movie theatre for the first time since Cabaret back in 1972. From the mad conducter in the opening credits to the surreal cinematography of the end scene, this film is loaded with the most beautiful imagery even. Beautiful music and staged numbers. "Roxanne" is worth the admissions alone. Ewan McGreger makes being naive very sexy. What a wonderful surprise of a movie.

Summary: BEST FILM THIS YEAR
Review: This film is simply amazing. It's one of those films that reviews can't do it justice. Packed full of fun, colour and sparkles. Nicole Kidman shows just how talented an actress she is in this film, her talent for both acting and singing coming through strong.
Ewan McGregor also shows his talent in this film, contrasting greatly with Nicole. The film is not to be missed, and i will definately be seeing it again. A film with no disappointments but many pleasant surprises. Go watch it!

Summary: Excellent!
Review: Moulin Rouge! is the best movie I've seen in a long time. It is a unique, colorful, and overall fun film. The acting is great, the story is a bit cliched but what it lacks the unique and beautiful touches make up for, the songs are FABULOUS, the main reason to see the film, and the scenery and atmosphere of the movie are great. I must warn, though, if you don't like musicals, this movie is not for you.
