This film is the best film I have seen in a long time. I was a bit dubious about it before I watched it, thinking firstly that it was going to be a bit of a chick flick that I wouldn't enjoy, and secondly that it was going to be another load of Baz Luhrman rubbish, as I really disliked Romeo and Julliet. But as soon as the film ...

Every so often a something comes along which we go absolutely uncontrollably ga-ga about. It could be a new gadget, a trendy (or not so trendy) restaurant, a revolutionary song, a mega-magnificent-fall-off-your-chair good book, a mind-blowing play, or - as in my case over the past few months - a film. You know when you're in the ga-ga ...

Like almost every American college boy who ever took a cut-rate flight to Paris, I went to the Moulin Rouge on my first night in town. I had a cheap standing-room ticket way in the back, and over the heads of the crowd, through a haze of smoke, I could vaguely see the dancing girls. The tragedy of the Moulin Rouge is that by the time you ...

Great works of art that challenge conventional notions often polarize opinion, and it's obvious that "Moulin Rouge" has done just that. The polarity of opinions seen here on Amazon mirrors the love-it/hate-it reactions the film generated upon release in Spring '01. I think this is because "MR" reinvents that ...

The Bottom Line: A spectacle for all of the senses, see "Moulin Rouge" for something different than your average Hollywood fare. Recommended: Yes Plot Details: This opinion reveals minor details about the movie's plot. When I say "Moulin Rouge" isn't for everyone, I'm not excluding very ...

When i went to see Moulin Rouge i had no idea what it was about i had just heard alot of hype and some good reviews here and there. So when it turned out to be something completely different to any other films that are getting released week in and week out at the cinema i was pleasantly surprised. The quality of the singing and from the two ...

Moulin Rouge has topped my all-time favourite film list. It's one of the most CrEaTiVe, DaZzLiNg, ExHiLaRaTiNg and SeXy films of today - it's a whole new cinematic experience and you won't have seen anything like it before. The director, Baz Luhrman has created a whole new film genre, making Hollywood musicals trendy again while at the ...

The first time i saw this film at the cinema, i had no idea what it was about and had not seen a single review about it or trailer for it. I think this helped immensely. The less you know about the film the better. So, having said that, my first recommendation is that you stopped reading right now and just go and watch this film with no ...

Like the saying goes, nothing succeeds like excess and here’s the proof. Moulin Rouge has thousands of extras, maelstroms of colour and fountains of noise, all orchestrated in the worst possible taste. And it’s absolutely staggering. For all the debt to theatre evident here, Baz Lurhmann and his collaborators have created a slab of ...

When I went to see "Moulin Rouge" I went into the cinema totally unaware of what I was about to see. I had no idea it was a musical and how gorgeous Ewan is! Since then I've been a devoted fan of his,-(I think it was the fact he was singing love songs that did it!) You can imagine the surprise on my face when the screen suddenly ...

Do you believe in joy??? hope??? entertainment?? and love??? if so this is the movie for you. It is set in the turn of the centery of 1899. The story is about a young writer who goes to paris to write about love. He then in a great scene finds himself paired up with some writers for a play for the moulan rouge. The moulan rouge is a big ...

Moulin Rouge has to be my favourite film of all time. I am not just saying that because I love to watch a romantic film but it is so classy, radiant and harmonious. I first heard of this film in the papers and it never really appealed to me at first because it seemed quite boring. I only thought this as in America it hadn't been much of a ...

Moulin Rouge is a movie that has divided a lot of peoples opinions into the ‘it’s just a chick flick musical with as much gushy girly sentimentality as Titanic’ or the ‘A cinematic tour de force that captures the romanticism of love combined with a charming wit, outstanding acting and highly entertaining music’. ...

I was not sure whether this film was worth seeing but i decided to take the risk and go and see it. And i was pleasently suprised. This is the most innovative film I have ever seen. The whole film is shot exactly the way Christian, the penniless poet and hero of the story, would see the memory of it in his mind, showing you exactly how it ...

In Baz Luhrmann’s Moulin Rouge we are introduced to the character of Christian (Ewan McGregor), a young struggling Bohemian poet living in 1899 Paris who defies his father and joins a colorful and diverse art gang inhabiting the dark yet fantastical underworld of Paris' now legendary Moulin Rouge. A haven of sex, drugs and newly ...

I was dragged kicking and and screaming to my seat, popcorn in one hand and drink in the other. My girlfriend sat down next to me, she was so excited and i just looked at her and thought, what had i got to sit through now! How wrong could i have been, i went in thinking this is an absolute "Chick Flick" as they call it. As the ...

O.K., so i had my reservations about going to see a soppy love story, i mean, i'm into hard core horror (!)(for those of you who have read my jeepers creepers review!) But i was bored and off i went to the cinema anyway, armed with my big box of tissues and my extra large diet coke. The film is set in Bohemian Paris. A young writer ...

Absolutely a waste of the film it was printed on. - Advantages: Ewan Mcgregor - Disadvantages: everybody else
