AWESOME AWESOME AWESOME!!! great music, brilliant cast, and a touching storyline... definitely opened up my eyes even more to the lives of those touched by aids. I WANNA SEE IT AGAIN!!!!
May I just comment that after seeing the nominations for the Golden Globes....I just don`t get it. Not a single nomination for "Rent" in the musical/comedy category? Instead we see "Walk the Line" listed as a musical? I really think the grey haired critics of the press have done a great disservice to this film. At the same time, I guess it is a somewhat backhanded compliment to be unappreciated in your own time.
I thought that this was a great adaptation from the broadway musical! It did not lose it`s charm or amazingly inspiring story. A wonderful movie!
I thought it was so good! i would def. recommend it! 5 stars!
Amazing story and music. Though having seen the stage show serveral times, I feel like the movie is missing some of the edgy qualities that make the show so incredible. I really find it heartbreaking that the story had so much potential, but the movie failed to meet my expectations.
Powerful. Tear-jerkingly sad. Reminiscent of early Scorsese for the photography of burned-out New York settings, and early DePalma for the expert usage of crane shots. On par with Chicago for contemporary musicals.
There is some raw talent in this one... but then again, it is most of the original broadway cast!
I`ve seen it probably about 4 times now.The BEST movie i`ve ever seen in a LONG time! And i`ve seen some pretty good ones seeing as I wokr at the movie theatre! I recommend it to EVERYONE.
never again will i see a terrible movie
It was a darn good film... Saw the Broadway show in November. The movie was better, I thought. When will they make an "Avenue Q" movie?!?!
