With so many big names and the director of "Chicago", although the film was not well received after it came out, I still have some expectations out of my love for musical films. But that anticipation wears off soon after the film begins, because it makes you feel as if Marshall didn't want to make a movie in the first place, and just took the Broadway opera to the stage. If the "Moulin Rouge" of that year was based on singing and dancing as the main line of narrative, "Chicago" successfully used singing and dancing to express psychological activities, and "Dream Girl" was a bit bluntly inserted into the main line of singing and dancing. In "Nine", most of the During the time, I couldn't see the reason for those songs and dances. Instead, I imagined that if there were no songs and dances, I could tell a smooth story.
The story is not good, just look at the stars, but the stars are even more disappointing. The stars who speak Italian, Western and French English, although there are not many singing and dancing scenes, it is still difficult to conceal their thin voice and pale singing skills. In contrast, only Marion Cotillard's songs and Penelope Cruz's dance is barely on the table, what else... Only Nicole and Cruz's performance together gives me some reverie...
Rob Marshall and Baz Luhrmann I haven't come up with any good musicals in this year. The latter just directed a somewhat messy musical at last year's Oscars. There is no news about other directors. It seems that we will have to wait for a good musical. some time.
