After watching the mess that was dark phoenix a few days ago,rewatching this was a timely reminder of how a comic book movie should be done.
This was a sequel that improved immensely on the original.A brilliant storyline,a bad guy who you could really hate and some top notch special effects.A classic

I was undecided whether to watch this film. musicals generally don't appeal to me (there are exceptions). however my wife wanted to watch it so I bought her the blu-ray and we sat down on a Saturday night and watched it. I was really very pleasantly surprised at how much I enjoyed it. I'm a big fan of Hugh Jackman anyway I don't remember a bad film he's been in and I think he's a fantastic all round entertainer. I felt some of the songs seemed a bit samey and forgettable but the story and acting were good. Zac Efron I think redeemed himself from the drivel he's been in recently. It was a shame about some dodgy cgi in places but overall I thoroughly enjoyed it.

The hugely talented Mr Jackman
Amazing
A constant stream of powerful, catchy songs all accompanied by fantastic choreography and eye popping visuals. Hugh Jackman is brilliant as showman P T Barnum, as is Zac Efron and everyone else. I really couldn't find fault with this as far as entertainment value goes. My daughter has been playing the soundtrack and singing the songs ever since we saw the movie and that's fine by me (for now!). It's wonderful when a movie comes along with the power to entertain and affect you long after leaving the cinema.

The Greatest Showman
I love this movie so much. From the first downbeat it never stops. The dancing and singing is superb. Hugh Jackman has never been better. And Zac Effron is amazing. Keala Settle as Letty is a force to be reckoned with. Her voice is award worthy. This is a must see family film for musical lovers.

Dramatisation/Inspired by the life of PT Barnum and starring none-other than Wolverine himself - Hugh Jackman - in his first role (I think) since saying goodbye to that character in "Logan", this was actually somewhat of a surprise hit - and a surprise to me, too, that Hugh Jackman could sing and dance!
It seems like most of the songs from this show - "The Greatest Show", "This Is Me", "A Million Dreams", "Never Enough", to name but a few - where in the charts forever and a day: indeed, such was the all-encompassing pervasiveness of them that many artists created their own versions (some are better; others worse).
Yes, it glosses over some of the less-savoury aspects of his character and business model (animal cruelty, paying his staff little to nothing), but this is a genuine feel-good movie for the masses!

Feel good film
This is me
I was expecting good I got spectacular
I haven't seen a film that is a proper family feel good film made like this in years. It's a great concept and story delivered perfectly by every actor on the screen. The song This is me is brilliant while all are this one just stand out the most for me.

Storyline
AI Concept is Ace
A Cult Classic
From the same director that brought us, District 9 and Elysium. We have the masterpiece that is Chappie. I can't express how much love I have for this film. So much love. The cast is ace, the CGI is incredible and the story...oh man the story is a work of art. Sigourney Weaver known as the alien go-to lady, plays an interesting role in this film, I liked her portrayal of the CEO. Hugh Jackman *sigh* I adore him and he shines in this role (as always) but he unfortunately plays a total a**hole :( Yo-Landi and Ninja the world's worst parents but in the best way :) (They both members of the band Die Antwoord, which has some top tracks, well worth a listen) Overall, this is just an epic film. Watch it. You won't be disappointed!

Snikt!
I will try and avoid spoilers, but if you have not seen this movie......you should! Wolverine and X-23 are an amazing team, and add Prof X in the mix and you have solid characters you can care about. The action is well paced and the ending.....it’s a tear jerker. Loved it.
