 | I am a guy. I am a guy who likes heartfelt and engrossing acting and plot and I dont mind a bit of romance. I am absolutly amazed at the brilliance of this film. It is difficult to name many other films that have taken film to a new level of artistry. Thank you to Moulin Rouge for doing just that. Watch it with your partner and let the love and wonder take you away. |

 | I was mesmerized on my first viewing of this film, having never seen anything like it. The choice of modern songs blew me away. For years, film-makers have been searching for a way to use music to tell stories without jumping into an un-real world of singing and dancing in inappropriate, un-real scenarios. This film is an exercise in that quest. The classic device of using a play within a play is brilliantly used, again drawing attention to the real/unreal quality of musicals. The extra features are expansive, and can really expand ones understanding of the theme of this film. |

 | This is a movie that definately will not be for everyone. The songs are what pulled me in and make me keep going back. Of course Ewan McGregor and Nicole Kidman were fantastic(and they can sing!!!), but there was also the Unconscious Argentinean (Jacek Koman) who was wonderful. Anyone who has a taste for the unusual should try this out. I will admit that there was one point when I felt uncomfortably overwhelmed with color, sound, and flashing images. If you decide to give it a try, DO NOT go into it as a serious film. The first time I saw it, there were several "what was THAT" for me in the movie. I consider this movie a keeper, but it has a different flavor from the normal. |
