DVD Reviews of Moulin Rouge (Two-Disc Collector's Edition)

DVD Review: Great Movie
Summary: 5 Stars

Great perfomance by Nicole Kidman and what an amazing blend of vocals with Ewan McGregor! If you like good musicals, this is a must-have! The beginning seems really out-there, but stick with it and it'll all come together.

DVD Review: Worst Musical Movie Ever
Summary: 1 Stars

The movie was so long and drawn out with nothing but songs. Even the first fifteen minutes had nothing but musicals. My entire family had to shut this movie off and return it for a full refund at our local rental store it was so bad.

If you have a taste for cheesy musicals with a bad story line then this just might be your movie.

The movie felt like it was so drawn out even in the first fifteen minutes of watching it! I would say this was the worst musical movie ever!

DVD Review: Emotional
Summary: 5 Stars

Pulls, Tugs and Dances with all of your emotions from happy-dance feelings, excitement, and explicit appearance of the insinuation of sexual desire in all of its wonderful forms without crudity--laughter and the finality of deep heart wrenching grief that the audience experiences. This movie moves you up and down the emotional scale. Absolutely amazing music and dancing! Loved it even though I was exhausted after each time I saw it. Think I've seen it 4 or 5 times.

DVD Review: I've Finally Decided I Like This Movie!
Summary: 4 Stars

So, I saw this movie for the first time with some friends about 3 years ago, and I have to admit that I didn't like it. I was mad at the ending. But, I found that I kept thinking about the story. Life was busy, so about a year later I rented the movie, to see if I was remembering it correctly and if I liked it. Same thing. And now, 2 years later... I finally bought it. And, I have to admit that I really do like this movie, but it's different. It's eccentric. It's beautiful. And crazy. And funny. And very romantic. The story underneath everything is so beautiful.

And, I just have to say that it's beautiful because we, as women, but also as human beings (male and female alike) were made to love like this. Love deeply, wholly, passionately. That doesn't always happen in life, sadly. But nonetheless, that's what our hearts long for. "The greatest thing you'll ever learn is just to love and be loved in return." How true.

ps... there's also a song that fits that quote. It's "Made to Love" by tobyMac.

I wouldn't recommend this movie for kids, mostly just because of the first few scenes. She is a prostitute in a brothel/night club after all. But, the story is one you'll remember for sure. (But, it's because of those scenes and because of the eccentricness of the movie at times that I make it a 4. Some people probably won't like it)

Description of Moulin Rouge (Two-Disc Collector's Edition)

A spectacle beyond anything you've ever witnessed. An experience beyond everything you've ever imagined. Behind the red velvet curtain, the ultimate seduction of your senses is about to begin. Welcome to the Moulin Rouge! Nicole Kidman and Ewan McGregor sing, dance and scale the heights of passionate abandon in the year's most talked-about movie from visionary director Baz Luhrmann (William Shakespeare's Romeo + Juliet, Strictly Ballroom). Enter a tantalizing world that celebrates truth, beauty, freedom and above all things, love.

A dazzling and yet frequently maddening bid to bring the movie musical kicking and screaming into the 21st century, Baz Luhrmann's Moulin Rouge bears no relation to the many previous films set in the famous Parisian nightclub. This may appear to be Paris in the 1890s, with can-can dancers, bohemian denizens like Toulouse-Lautrec (John Leguizamo), and ribaldry at every turn, but it's really Luhrmann's pop-cultural wonderland. Everyone and everything is encouraged to shatter boundaries of time and texture, colliding and careening in a fast-cutting frenzy that thinks nothing of casting Elton John's "Your Song" 80 years before its time. Nothing is original in this kaleidoscopic, absinthe-inspired love tragedy--the words, the music, it's all been heard before. But when filtered through Luhrmann's love for pop songs and timeless showmanship, you're reminded of the cinema's power to renew itself while paying homage to its past.

Luhrmann's overall success with his third "red-curtain" extravaganza (following Strictly Ballroom and William Shakespeare's Romeo & Juliet) is wildly debatable: the scenario is simple to the point of silliness, and how can you appreciate choreography when it's been diced into hash by attention-deficit editing? Still, there's something genuine brewing between costars Ewan McGregor and Nicole Kidman (as, respectively, a poor writer and his unobtainable object of desire), and their vocal talents are impressive enough to match Luhrmann's orgy of extraordinary sets, costumes, and digital wizardry. The movie's novelty may wear thin, along with its shallow indulgence of a marketable soundtrack, but Luhrmann's inventiveness yields moments that border on ecstasy, when sound and vision point the way to a moribund genre's joyously welcomed revival. --Jeff Shannon
