Pros: The music, a great story, outstanding color schemes, and superb acting. Cons: none
"The greatest thing you'll ever learn, is just to love, and to be loved in return." Words to live by, and a lesson that must be learned in the duration of the film Moulin Rouge . Baz Luhrmann took a step out into the unknown, and was ...
It has been a long time since I have been so wonderfully surprised by a movie. Of course, I had to go see it since it took place in my favorite city in the world!! While recently in Paris, we stopped to take a photo opportunity in front of the famous...
Pros: Ewan McGregor, sets, and art direction. Cons: There's a bit too much of too much in this one.
Welcome, boys and girls, to two hours of wormwood extract hell. Baz Luhrman's latest extravaganza is set in the demimondaine underworld of Paris in 1899. It's a place of pimps, prostitutes, guys looking for a good time and the dwarf artist...
Pros: WOW! Where has Ewan McGregor been all of my life? Cons: A little loud and busy at times, but that's just a small inconveinence.
Preamble
Let's get this straight. I don't like musicals. Grease? Sure, it had its time and place. The Music Man? High school fodder for David Cassidy wannabees.
Pros: Great songs, imaginative sets and film technique plus good acting
Cons: Have to suspend your belief in reality but what's wrong with that?
My wife and I just returning from seeing Baz Luhrmann's "Moulin Rouge". After the first 20 minutes, I turned to her and asked "What do you think?" She said and I agreed that the movie was one of the goofiest films we'd seen in a long time.
Pros: Entertainment! McGregor and Kidman. Cons: A bit too much. Could have been put together better.
In the beginning we see a red curtain. In front of the red curtain we see the image of a man conducting the music we are hearing with what can only be described as reckless abandon. The curtain, the orchestra pit, and the flickering of the...
Pros: A symphony of sight and sound Cons: Sight and sound aren't everything
Call me old-fashioned. I like musicals of all sorts, from the ones MGM made famous in the forties and fifties to rock musicals to recent films that incorporate old standards in a modern setting. However, I am not a fan of “Moulin Rouge!” which...
Pros: great acting, especially by McGregor and Kidman, interesting use of music Cons: some scenes are extremely loud and chaotic
I am a great fan of musicals, so when I heard about the movie Moulin Rouge, I was intrigued, particularly since the musical has gone out of fashion even where it is most expected; Disney’s recent lack of musical numbers, particularly sung by a ...
Pros: Most original movie I've seen in a long time. Cons: The ending.
Moulin Rouge is different from just about every other movie I have ever seen. And it is different from everything out now. But just because it is different doesn't mean it isn't a good movie. It is wonderful.
Pros: Excellent acting, well done music, garishly entertaining. Cons: Overly simplistic story line.
With my somewhat... shall we say... conservative... tastes in movies and books, it came as somewhat of a surprise to me the other day that I would even consider sitting down and watching Moulin Rouge, much less buying it on DVD. Yet, that's...
Pros: Imagery, production numbers; limited use as white noise on sleepless nights Cons: Everything else
Is the day of the big production musical movie gone forever? Some say no, since Baz Luhrmann is bringing it all back. I say yes. Let's bury it before it starts growing something funky.
I would like to say I adored this film,because I...
Pros: Love Story, Good music Cons: sad ending, people who need to die, don't.
When I think Moulin Rouge, I think of the hit single from Moulin Rouge, "Lady Marmalade" from a year ago with Pink, Lil' Kim, Mya, and Christina. It's a fun, upbeat party type song. It's happy.
After watching the film Moulin Rouge, my thoughts...
Pros: Most music, most acting, and the costumes Cons: too loud, too busy, too confusing
When I look at the others, and the credits and awards for this movie I again shake my head and wonder what rock I scurry under to sleep. Beauty? Of course there was beauty – the story of undying love between the head courtesan Satine (Nicole Kidman)...
Pros: Exciting musical and dance experience Cons: none
Those of you that read my reviews know my favorite subject to write about is Paris or anything to do with France for that matter.. So, why is it I've waited so long to see this movie you ask? Well, I guess the reason would be the fact that the it was...
Venture behind the red velvet curtain and witness a spectacle beyond the imagination. Enter a fantastic world where nothing is forbidden and everythin...More at Buy.com Marketplaces
