Pros: good music, hard work was put into it Cons: too busy at times
I recently saw the movie Moulin Rouge. It is not a movie for everybody. If you don't like art and drama, don't see it. It takes place in the 1890s in Paris, France. The main actor and actress are Ewan McGregor and Nicole Kidman. They were great in...

Pros: Fast-paced, entertaining, music filled fun! Cons: Some males may not like...
This movie left me laughing SO hard! I have never had so much fun watching a movie as I did with this one. And, such a special treat with Nicole Kidman and Ewan McGregor singing their own songs!!
I had bought the CD before I saw any previews...

Pros: Nicole Kidman finally proves herself as an actress with this one. Cons: Style may be a bit "edgy" for some; musical genre may also be a turnoff.
The opening scenes were so "edgy," I felt perhaps I would regret paying to see Moulin Rouge. Shortly thereafter, however, I was totally caught up in the characters, storyline, historical ambiance and props. Nicole Kidman really can act, as well as sing...

Pros: good music, beautifully designed costumes and sets, overall a good story Cons: musical, they got annoying with their little songs, the ending sucked
The movie had a good love story behind it, although the actual movie was not that good. I thought that it could have been better if it was not a musical. I mean they said the same things over and over, "Want me". My friend and i started laughing at them...

Pros: Beautiful flow and plot especially of the music. Wonderful depiction of a French Theatre. Cons: Sad ending. Tear Jerker.
This is a beautiful flowing musical with modern songs interlaced with classic love songs. The love story is between a play write (Ewan McGregor) and the talent (Nicole Kidman). Although the writer seems to be as much a talent as the talent. It is set...

Pros: Like a Virgin Cons: Its not on DVD ... Yet.
As my boyfriend and I walk in to the Sony Metron, or is it Lowes theater at the metron, which ever. If you live in San Francisco you know what I am talking about. I see all the movies there, for one it has the best sound, second I don’t have to talk to...

Pros: Beautiful music, great actors/singers, Amazing Romantic plot, all you could want in a movie. Cons: They tell the ending in the begining of the movie.
I had thought I had seen the best movie of my time until I went out with a bunch of friends and saw this one, it truly beats out every movie I've ever seen. It fully deserves the title "Romantic Comedy", I know this much because it made me burst out...

Pros: Pros? I can't think of a Pro, thats a hard question! Cons: The ENTIRE MOVIE!
This review cannot give away details of a plot - because I didn't realize there was one. Jeez - This had to have been the most thrown together piece of crap I had ever seen on the screen. There was a really great plot if you could find it buried under...

Pros: Ohh! The memories! Ooh! The music! It's a bit 'kitchy' but I liked it! Cons: Some overdone staging, but not too bad!
In these heavy days of violence, terrorism and every imaginable horror thrown at us in our daily lives, this picture will disconnect you and transport you into a world of fantasy. The music is terrific and will open up fond memories of the great...

Pros: Music, Dance, Acting, Directing Cons: A bit confusing at the beginning
This is indeed a "different" kind of movie. I have been fortunate enough to have had the opportunity to see many movies and many Broadway shows, and I've never before seen a movie that conveys the excitement of Broadway and made me feel so much like I...

Pros: The singing was good Cons: confusing, dizzying
I went to see this movie with a friend. We heard it was supposed to be this amazing and spectacular musical. The movie begins with a flashback (which I hate) to tell the story of the previous year. The introduction of the theatre the Moulin Rouge is a...

Pros: Ewan McGregor, great story, interesting film style, all around good Cons: It's a little hard to follow in the begining.
It's hard to find a movie/musical that you can actually sit through and listen to the music and not get bored, but it's not impossable. Once in awhile you'll get a gem like "little shop of Horrors," or "The Loin King." looks like someones struck gold...

Pros: Nicole Kidman and Ewan McGregor sing like professional musicians. Cons: The love story of Moulin Rouge is not completely believable.
The "movie/musical" is back! Many of us remember one of the last and greatest musical love stories, "Grease." Moulin Rouge may just have topped it, while bringing this genre back to life. As a poor young artist in turn-of-the century Bohemian Paris,...

Pros: The sets have intresting flash and glitz...Wear sunscreen. Cons: My behind was so sore from boredom. Nicole did not rev my engines...again.
Wear Sunscreen.
Because Love looks cheap and bawdy in ‘Moulin Rouge’, I thought I was going to love this flick! But, what can I saw about 'Moulin Rouge' that hasn't been said about a royal pain in the butt that a pill can't reach? My bottom is so sore I am standing to...

Pros: Romantic, classical, beautiful plot, and nice casting. Cons: tragic ending along with sorrow.
Moulin Rouge is an amazing film that deserves to be in the hall of fame. The casting was great and the acting was unbelieveable! All of the characters have their own lives and personalities.
The main characters:
