Musical: Chicago

Here's a thread to discuss the musical (movie) "Chicago". Your take? Good, bad, mediocre, so so? What do you like about it? What do you dislike about it?

my ex made me rent this and then she fell asleep half way through Rolling Eyes but it wasn't bad, not really a musicals person but i quite enjoyed the storyline, i didn't turn it off when she fell asleep, that must of been a good sign.

The movie wasn't bad, but having seen the live musical with number of originally cast performers, I wasn't that impressed. The (live) musical was great though.

I liked this movie enough to go see the local theatre group do it. The live version was good but I still think that the movie did a very good job. A musical is not an easy thing to bring to the big screne but the Queen and Catherine Zeta Jones really pulled it off.

I'm not big on watching theater musicals as movies. It's okay. Even if I saw in theaters, I can't imagine really enjoying it. The storyline was bland. It's not boring, but I wouldn't watch it again.

If you have chance, you should see with original cast. They are true superstar performing artists.

I think it works better in the theater, but I and my family (a house full of women) were cackling with glee during "He Had it Coming" Wink
