I didn't think I would like this movie because I've always thought of it as an "on-stage musical", but it was very well done. Nice job if bringing the "stage" into the theater.

A facsinating film that exceeded my expectations. One of the best musicals I have ever seen.

I loved the music and the story; it was captivating. Emmy Rossum was my favorite. very well done, but not your typical hollywood movie. this is more on the lines of real theatre.

After seeing the musical I had to rent the movie version and I loved it! The music is enchanting and draws you in from the first moment...so much so I ended up buying the DVD!

I found the broadway show to be confusing, but was able to understand the love triangle better when I saw this movie! I bought it immediately...LOVE IT!!!!

I just can't understand the reviews stating that the music was "corny". I find the songs absolutely beautiful, the best of any musical I've ever seen. Of course, musicals can take some getting used to, so maybe that was the reason. My 6 year old daughter was mesmerized by it immediately (I discouraged her from watching it since it's PG-13, but she just closed her eyes and listened), and I bought the cd just to play it for her and my older daughter.

Do not put on the top of your list. Leave this movie for a lazy Sunday afternoon. Emmy Roosum did an excellent job and thoroughly enjoyed her singing.

I have seen this on two different stages, read the book and have the CD. This movie does no justice the splendor of the production. I had to force myself to finish the whole thing. The actors are stiff and don't even look like they are singing and Mini Driver was not convincing as an Italian. I was very disappointed. Don't ruin your memories or anticpation with this production!
