Brilliant film...watched it a few years ago and didn't think much of it but the second time I fell in love with the film, the songs, the characters...woudl recommend to everyone.
A good film is able to tell you the ending at the beginning but has kept you mesmorised through out the entire film that your still completely shocked towards the end. The music is also genius in this film with a really great cast of actors.
I loved the songs in this great love story. I dont usually like lvoe stories but this was great. The acting was first rate and the songs are so addictiable ( and sung so brillianly by stars Ewan McGregor and Nicole Kidman amongst others) that you end up singing them throughout the day.
There is a scene I skip because I don't like the chracter, I don't like it that at the end of some of the songs its dragged out be another character singing. But its only my opinion.
Classical doomed love.
A movie about truth, beauty and love. A love which will last forever.
take so long to see this brillant movie, its one of the best films ive seen in ages, i love everything about it, theres nothing wrong with it, its the best £1.24p ive ever spent.
i bought this film on the basis of a recommendation from a freind and i must say, i was a little dubious. For a start, i am not into musicals at all- but i was proved wrong. This film is absolutly amazing with a really nice but sad story line complemented by a fantastic performance by nicole kidman and ewan mcgregor. Having said that, its not everyones cup of tea but definetly worth a go just to hear the "elephant love medley" duet between ewan and nicole. A really great film!!!
This was quite a surprise to me, as its not typical of Nicole Kidmans usual films. I actually thought that her acting in the film was terrific, but I didnt like the style of the film at all. It was very surreal and frantic, with lots of larger than life characters,which made it all a bit mind numbing at times. Its probably a good choice for someone who enjoys cartoon style film sets, with the occasional piece of song and dance thrown in for good measure!
I Love This Film Cos It's So Upbeat And Has A Nice Story. I Dont Dislike Anything About The Film. I Bought It Because I Have Watched My Friends Copies And I Wanted One Of My Own
if you haven't seen this film..........................why not! tears,laughs,drama,it's a must.kidman and mcgregor are superb,and with a soundtrack as good,if not better than most other films I've seen.
This film brought about my love of Ewan McGreggor, I think it's a great musical and very funny. It did also bring a few tears to my eyes so is everything I look for in this kind of film.
A fantastic musical cocktail of drama and stunning visual artistry blended with excellent characterisations. Each frame Baz Luhrmann contructs shows a genius at work completing such a complex and compelling film.
Superb Film i Am Obsessed With It i Watch It Over and Over. Special Features on Normal Disc Aint Great But Look Out For The Special Features On The 2 Disc Edition, They Rock .
I like the film very much, I like films where the actors sing themselves and are not dubbed with professional singers voices. The songs and arrangements are great and Nicol Kidman is sweet. there's not much to dislike about it at all, maybe Ewan is a little wooden at times, and it is high camp;i don't know. I bought it for my ten year old daughter to give to my wife for her birthday, I prefer a higher body count myself.
I must say, this is one of my favourite films ever. Nicole & Ewan have real chemistry together and the story they tell is amazing. Supporting characters complete the movie giving it a fun, comic and dark feel.
An all round fantastic film and not just for musical lovers either.
i love this dvd its one of the best films ever so decidede to treat myself it was posted quite quickly would buy from again all new and still in plastic wrapping.
My girls absolutely love this film, but I didn't want to buy from elsewhere as it is too expensive I got a real bargin. My girls are always wanting DVD's and it's great when you can drop on bargins.
The music and costumes from this film are fabulous!!
I bought this DVD because I love the music and also it stars Ewan McGregor who is very 'fit' as my daughter would say. This DVD also had a second disc with special features which was a bonus. It arrived two days after I paid for it, what a relaxed way to shop.
This was a great iconic film,with a good match with kidman and Mcgregor as the leading stars.the music was emphatic and moving especially the score of Roxanne. A powerful film with a touching storyline and the music and colour of the ladies dresses fantastic the dancing was also rivetting. A film in my opinion will go down as a great production.
I love this film!!! It is the BEST film ever made!!! I love all the songs,I could lisen them for ages:) and the film is not boring,you can watch over and over again and never be bored with! Recommend to everyone! I heard so much abouth this film,and I am very happy that I have purchased it! Love it!
This is probably my most favourite film ever! I love it. I bought it because I had it on video but then with so many of my videos I needed to replace it to DVD. It is exciting, sad, exhilerating and the music is fantastic (I have the CD aswell). Nicole Kidman and Ewan McGregor are brilliant and show lots of chemistry.
I must admit though, it is an acquired taste as my sister, brother-in-law and partner don't like it at all! You will either love it or hate it but I love it!
I originally had this film on VCR,(purchased via EBay) watched it so often the tape got a bit thin. Bought a new DVD/VCR combi but the tape was too worn to play, so replaced the film on DVD. This has everything,goodies, a baddie (well sort of!), love, lots of singing and dancing and of course the sad ending. It is a brilliant film, the way the soundtrack has been mixed using every composer from John Lennon and Elton John to The Police is so cleverly done it leaves me breathless everytime. Euan Magregor shows himself in a completely new light in this film and even Nicole an hold a note!
