Moulin Rouge

Pros: Good Music
Cons: LONG

A long time ago in Paris there was a forbidden place.
And a poet looking to write a love story. Falls upon this play.
He is going through and seeing the play and through several things happening he falls in love with this main character...

Pros: Contemporary, funny, no nudity
Cons: a little fast moving at times

I was a little skeptical to go see MOULIN ROUGE opening weekend. I hadn't heard good press about it and thought that it was going to be very raunchy. Lots of sex and a bad plot is not how I want to spend my $8.50.

I was pleasantly surprised...

Pros: Well filmed and designed love story
Cons: a little to long

Beware boyfriends this movie is not what you think. It is a Broadway play dressed as a movie. I went in thinking it would be a movie with some singing and dancing and came out with no movie. All and all very interesting and very well filmed and added...

Pros: Funny with a great love story.
Cons: The ending was predictable in a way.

I walked into the movie theatre expecting to see a movie that was a musical and a love story. I knew what other movies like this have been like, take Evita for example. Instead I found the interesting twists put on the story and the characters that made...

Pros: great dancing and singing
Cons: flashing scenes

Who knew that Nicole Kidman could sing? Not only does she have a lovely voice, she plays her role well. Ewan MCGregor is a definite plus with the role he played.
The great uses of a can-can come alive as the constant quick changing scenes leave...

Pros: Wonderful design, camera work, and music
Cons: A little dizzy at sometimes

This is the best movie I've seen in a long time. Everything in the movie was great. The only problem was during the dance sequences where the camera changed subjects on every beat in the song. It almost make me dizzy.

The plot is pretty...

Pros: This movie was very eventful with great music.
Cons: The movie was slightly drawn out.

With the magnificent dancing and suspenseful plot, Moulin Rouge without a doubt tops the charts in good movies I've seen this year. I would especially suggest getting the DVD with the extra "Making of Moulin Rouge" and interviews with all the actors. The...

Pros: McGregor was awesome!
Cons: WAY too insane pacing, and tacky

Moulin Rouge is insane. The camera work is silly, and too over dramatic. Fast for the sake of doing it fast. I have a big problem with the 1899 paris reference followed by a lite fm concert. The money in the movie had to be spent on the copywrites...

Pros: This film was amazing - the camera, the cast, the music
Cons: none

This was one of the best musicals I have yet seen. Do not mistake Moulin for a movie - it is clearly a Musical. Ewan McGreggor proves to be an excellent vocalist as well as Nicole Kidman. Together they put on a stellar performance as well as moulded...

Pros: Excellent costumes, and remarkable performances.
Cons: That it must end.

With excellent perfomances by Ewan McGregor and Nicole Kidman. This movie shines with beauty and love as two lovers risk their lives just to be together. Set in a Paris nightclub in 1900 Satine (Kidman) is the city's most famous courtesan who falls for a...

Pros: Ewan McGregor, Nicole Kidman, and wonderful music!
Cons: None

When I first heard about this movie I was skeptical about it. I thought that it would be a little too cheesy for me and that it would be too flashy. But when I saw it was it wrong! It was the most amazing movie ever! The acting was superb. Ewan McGregor...

Pros: Music, dancing, and seduction.
Cons: The plot is a little slow at first.

Despite the dazzling 1900’s scenery, I wasn’t sure if I was going to like “Moulin Rouge” at first. I thought the whole movie was going to be a bordello-based music spoof without a plot. Much to my surprise, there was more than singing and dancing. I...

Pros: A visually interesting movie with some great themes.
Cons: An excess of tired drivel which may drive you mad!

The writers of Moulin Rouge seem to think that surrealism is a sure predictor of success. Although the idea behind the story is fantastic, and the musical numbers well done, the almost drug-like editing and special effects detract considerably from the...

Pros: Original, entertaining, up-lifting -- a truely delightful and inspiring movie!
Cons: Some may be deterred by a musical -- but I say give it a chance!

Moulin Rouge was one of the most original, inspiring, and entertaining love stories ever created -- told through unique story-telling, awesome musical medleys, beautiful cinematography, and genuinely good acting. This is the perfect date movie (major...

Pros: One for hopeless romantics.
Cons: A tidbit confusing.

Beginning: Curtains open to scenes of a 'dead' Bohemian, Paris. Float up to Christian's flat ...
