I think the movie was beautiful. My husband and I saw the original play, and we both thought this movie more than measured up. The only thing missing was the intermission half way through!!!! Wonderful casting and set design.
I have seen it five times. I think it was wonderful. It was visually beautiful and Gerard Butler was a masterful phantom. Emmy Rossum was perfect in the part of Christine and Minnie Driver was really funny as La Carlotta.
My girlfriend dragged me to this film after days and days of nagging. I felt no need to go since she has already seen it 10 times (that right 10 times). Having now seen it, I can see why she IS so obsessed. This film magnificent and this is coming from a man who CANNOT stand musicals. Several scenes gave me goosebumps and raised me to a level I have never experienced in a movie theatre before (did someone say Nirvana??). Spellbinding and artistically beautiful. Unless there`s something wrong with your eyes and ears, you will like (or in some cases LOVE) this film.
This movie was absolutely perfect! Gerard Butler was a fantastic choice for the phantom and takes the veiwer into his world of tragedy, romance, love and passion. His voice supprised me... absolutly knee buckling. Emmy Rossum aslo was a great actress to play the role of Christine. The two had an on stage chemistry which was magical. This movie completely envolves the viewer into its fabulous plot and the songs remain in your head for weeks. You go Andrew Lloyd Webber for making this movie as perfect as the broadway musical! The music was outstanding! Even though the phantom wasnt as hideous as in the original movie, it focuses more on the tra
The nusic is more than beautiful. its angelic.
This film was wrongfully "snubbed" at the Oscars. It deserved more than 3 nods. That said, this is a great musical experience. Run don`t walk to see this spectacular adaptation of Andrew Lloyd Webber`s most succesful musical. On the big screen, it`s larger than life and you will want to see it again.
the best movie i have seen in my 18 years of living
i loved butler as the phantom - and his voice!
terrific just as it was in the theater
The movie was brilliant! Everyone gave a superb performance, however, Gerard Butler, gave life to the Phantom. How I connected with his pain and suffering. I shall never be the same.
