If you haven't heard or seen Davis Gaines or Michael Crawford this might be acceptable, but the high notes weren't there. Christine was very good (especially considering her age and experience at filming time)....
And one more question: what happen to the Phantom's hair when he took off the Don Juan mask?
Suddenly it was stringy and brown (not black) and missing from the side of his head???? Close this Review WAS THIS REVIEW HELPFUL? Yes | No | ||

Read More I really enjoyed this movie, the music the dancing the costumes were fantastic! I must buy the soundtrack because the music was so mesmerizing and fantastic. I will agree with one reviewer that I was disappointed when the phanton had his mask off his hair was suddenly whitish/yellow and stringy when all along it looked black- don't understand the logic with that. OVERALL THIS MOVIE IS A MUST SEE!!!!!!!!!!! FIVE STARS!!!!!!!!!! My sons 16 and 14 also liked it and the music.

Read More If you are a fan of the musical "Phantom of the Opera" you will absolutely love the movie rendition. I was afraid that it would lose something on the "big screen" but I found it to be even better (rare) than in a theater. This is a movie that the whole family can watch and enjoy together for the beautiful music, scenery and suspense! Close this Review WAS THIS REVIEW HELPFUL? Yes | No | ||

Read More Andrew Lloyd Webber's THE PHANTOM OF THE OPERA is THE BEST THING EVER MADE INTO A MOVIE. I saw the stage show at the Majestic Theater and it was truly breath-taking, but this movie adaptation is certinly the next best thing. Dont listen to Beth, Carl, Candie, or anyone else who gave this a bad review. If a million stars were an option then thats what my rating would be. The music is chilling and legendary and CERTINLY NOT CHEESEY AND BORING!!!!! RENT THIS MOVIE AND WATCH IT!!!! NOW!!!!! Close this Review WAS THIS REVIEW HELPFUL? Yes | No | ||

He brings a fresh, new interpretation to the role. He does an excellent job of expressing the pain and suffering of the Phantom, even thru the mask. Emmy Rossum & Patrick Wilson sing divinely. Everything was top notch. Close this Review WAS THIS REVIEW HELPFUL? Yes | No | ||
