I went to see it 5 times and still want to go again. It was captivating and entrancing.
pretty much my favoritist movie of the year- possibly even ever! me and my whole family are left with the words in our heads etcetera etcetera
I thought this movie was visually awesome and the music just took you away from everything.I could see why some have seen it multiple times. I did not see the stage version but I`m sure this was close as one could get.Excellent.
great!love the music...
No one... and I mean NO ONE can "swoop" a cape... like the babe (G.B.) who played the Phantom. It has been a long time since a movie could bring on the goose-bumps. I was amazed at the singing, and was grateful that they kept it as close to the broadway play as much as possible. I have gone 4 times since the release... and plan to go many more times!
A truly stunning performance!
no turning back now.....absolutely mesmerising..i have seen the movie 3 times...the music is so seductive...and powerful....the story tragic and engrossing..i have decided....they earned and deserved academy awards for the obvious work to direct and produce, costume and orchestrate...the voices were spellbinding, i love sarah and michael, but I put them away and listen only to this phantom, and sing at the top of my lungs, with a tear in my eye....Sue
The best movie i have seen in a long time
soooperb!
At first i had expected that it would not be as good as the musical, but after walking out of the movies, i realized that i was wrong. It was stunning and left me speechless. Emmy Rosum continues to blow me away in every way: her voice, her beauty, and the fact that she has accomplished so much at such a young age. Gerard Butler was by far one of the most incredible phantoms i have ever seen. He was so into character and you really did fall in love with his character. I cannot believe that he had no singing experience proir to the movie. His version of "Music of the Night" was just beautiful. If you haven`t seen this movie, you must!
