DVD Reviews of Jekyll & Hyde - The Musical
DVD Review: My Favorite Musical
Summary: 5 Stars
When Jeckyl and Hyde was on Broadway in NYC, I went to NYC 8 times (from CT) to see it.
I also have to confess that I cried when I heard the show was ending.
This DVD is so terrific ! David Hasselhoff plays Jeckyl and Hyde and altho he can act, he can't sing.However, his performance doesn't detract from the overall DVD experience.
I LOVE the story, the music, the special effects and the superb acting...
Try it....you won't be disappointed.
Just another ''Jekky''
DVD Review: Excellent!!!
Summary: 5 Stars
I loved seeing this musical when I bought it! David Hasselhoff does an outstanding job as Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde. I love the songs in the play, all the actors do a great job. I would highly recommend you buying this dvd. It is well worth the money. :-)DVD Review: Fabulous!
Summary: 5 Stars
Normally I wouldn't buy anything sung by David Hasselhoff. But, I caught the last 15 minutes and the last showing of Jekyll & Hyde on HBO and was determined to get a copy for myself. I'm not easily impressed, but David Hasselhoff blew my socks off! No kidding, Knight Rider ala Babe Watch and American Idol is to be commended for his performance in this musical. His diction is perfect, his range topnotch, his turning into Dr. Jekyll from Mr. Hyde is downright creepy and will give you chills. The best is towards the end where Dr. Jekyll is attempting to take over the body of Mr. Hyde, and Hasselhoff has to sing a dual part of Jekyll and Hyde at the same time. Not to be missed. David Hasselhoff is absolutely fabulous in this musical. The entire cast including the set designers are to be commended also. It was fascinating to see what effects could be created with a limited set design. Really great job! This entire musical is really, really good! DVD Review: May be better to wait but...
Summary: 4 Stars
I was fortunate enough to see the Original Broadway Cast on Broadway with the exception of Robert Cuccioli. I saw his understudy but have a really hard time believing Cuccioli was better than his understudy. It was an absolutely amazing performance. The reason I saw his understudy was that his understudy did all matinee performances because the role of Jekyll/Hyde was so demanding on the voice. The role requires a big voice and I don't think Hasselhoff had it. I don't think he destroyed the role. I just saw better. This is the only reason I give this a four out of five, instead of five out of five. They are planning to make a feature movie from Frank Wilhelm's Jekyll & Hyde so it might be worthwhile waiting. Unfortunately, there is no timeline on when this project might be finished. They still haven't held auditions.
DVD Review: I'll admit it....
Summary: 4 Stars
I watched this show to jeer at it. I mean, come on--David Hasselhoff as Jekyll and Hyde? But I was surprised. It was better, much better, than I expected. The scene in which Hasselhoff has to sing a duet with himself as both Jekyll and Hyde is impressive. I liked the song "It's a dangerous game" with Hyde and Lucy. I also liked the fact that nearly every actor in the show had a dual role. Nice touch, that! All and all, JEKYLL AND HYDE is a pretty good show!
Description of Jekyll & Hyde - The Musical
The longest-running show in the history of Broadway's Plymouth Theatre, Jekyll & Hyde: The Musical brings new life to Robert Louis Stevenson's classic story of romance and the epic battle between good and evil. A whirlwind odyssey pitting man against himself is set in motion when the brilliant Dr. Jekyll's medical experiment backfires, giving life to his evil alter ego, Edward Hyde. The show won a legion of repeat visitors (dubbed by the press asBaywatch alum David Hasselhoff stars in the dual title roles of Jekyll and Hyde: The Musical, Frank Wildhorn and Leslie Bricusse's version of Robert Louis Stevenson's gothic horror classic. The story of the brilliant scientist who uncovers the good and evil aspects of the human heart was a pay-per-view event on the Broadway Television Network, filmed on stage before a live audience. If that audience had seen a lot of Broadway shows, they probably didn't see much they hadn't seen before, but its familiar plot and accessible pop score give Jekyll and Hyde a certain appeal, especially for musical novices.
Notable songs for Coleen Sexton and Andrea Rivette (as good girl Lucy and bad girl Emma, respectively) include "Someone Like You," "Once Upon a Dream," and the duet "In His Eyes." Hasselhoff cuts an imposing figure but is somewhat unsteady in such anthems as "This Is the Moment," which are tailor-made for big voices (for example, Linda Eder, Wildhorn's wife and the creator of the Lucy role). --David Horiuchi
