I had high expectations for this movie. I can't say that I was completely blown away, but I enjoyed it. In the end I thought it could have been better so I am giving it a 9.
I thought the acting was pretty good. Especially Anne Hathaway and Hugh Jackman. The one person I thought that could've done better was Russell Crowe. He acted well and his voice is good too. It's just when the two came together it was kind of fake. There was only one scene in the movie that I thought he pulled them both off. I really like Russell Crowe so I was pretty disappointed about that.
The singing was really good. Unlike other movies, this movie's singing is recorded live and that made the performances more real. I thought all the actors had great voices and the song "Suddenly" which was written for this movie was very good. I also thought Amanda Seyfried's singing had really improved since "Mamma Mia". I really enjoyed her performances.
I've heard people complaining about the horrible CG, but I honestly think it's not such a big deal. The CG was not the best, but it's the last thing that crosses your mind after you watch this wonderful movie. I enjoyed this film, even though I had expected more from it. It's one of those movie's that people will say was a turning point for musicals in the film industry. So I think it's a movie worth watching.
