After
last years "Moulin Rouge" the musical was back,
but that was only one, could there be two great musicals in
a row?
Yes! "Chicago" delivers the goods big time.
Even though I am not a big fan of Renee Zelwegger she did
a great job, as did Catherine Zeta-Jones and Richard Gere.
But
the two that I thought stole the show were Queen Latifah and
John C. Reilly. Their performances were downright spectacular.
The
music and dancing is overwhelming. This is a movie that to
me speaks volumes about creativity. The fact of taking a great
stage experience and moving it to the big screen with the
power and panache that it does is great.
Director
Rob Marshall puts big stars together and creates a musical
of monsterous porportions.
See
this again and again.
