My Thoughts:
- I love the original play, so when I saw they were doing a musical adaptation, I knew I had to see it.
- Sadly, I missed the first 15 min of the movie because I was being held hostage at the car dealership. Why do they always take forever! Grrr!!
- The story is so beautiful and heart wrenching. I loved it! I also loved all the humor they threw in. There are some very funny moments.
- Dinklage's performance was so good! He has such a rich and deep voice. I didn't know he could sing.
- Visually, it was very appealing. Musically . . .it was okay. I didn't love all the singers, and I didn't love all the songs. Some of the songs. . .were a little cringy. The villain song was really bad and awkward. In a few of the songs, some of the lyrics were silly and crammed into the melody. Some songs were really good though. It was a very weird mix.
- Some of the dances seemed out of place and weird. I wanted to giggle when these people were holding loaves of bread in the air and moving around in a circle.
- I'm glad I saw this in the theater. Yes, I'd like to see it again, especially the beginning. Yes, I've listened to the soundtrack, and my feelings about the songs haven't changed.
