Review: Les Miserables

Well, I've been looking forward to this movie since, well since Susan Boyle I saw the trailer. To be honest, I thought Defying Gravity was in this movie, so I kinda was waiting for it to come, but it never did!

Anyhow, regarding the movie, I had quite high expectations for it, as I've been recommending it to others solely based on the trailer. Expectations kill.

Okay, a bit. Overall, the movie is decent enough in every aspect - plot, songs, acting. Song's are good. in fact, I Dreamed A Dream has been stuck in my head since the movie and it still is!

Only quip I have is that they try to turn every, and I mean EVERY single sentence into a song. I know it's a musical, but how about some decent lines, eh? This is the lame part of the movie. Some times, I just feel, like, oh no..not again!!

Well, besides that, I guess it's a good show for me. Clue: for me. It's sort of a personal cup thing. If you like history, musicals, the finer things in life, GO! If you're the type who only watches Transformers and the Avengers, better stay home ;)

And oh, Anne Hathaway totally stole the show with I Dreamed A Dream. It's spot on, raw and brilliant.
