Absolutely amazing!
Was not sure at all about this film with Hugh Jackman singing, (he will always be wolverine) but there couldn't have been a better actor for this film, in Love with this film, goosebumps for most of the film and you find yourself cheering for underdogs more than once!
Heart wrenching at pieces but in a whole a wonderful film that you can watch (and sing along too) multiple times!

This is the greatest show...
Still singing the songs many months later! Hugh Jackman and Zac Efron both give outstanding performances, while the supporting cast of singers will make you laugh, sigh and weep. A feel good family musical with an uplifting message of acceptance and love - heard in every song on the OST. Powerful chords, moving lyrics and strong voices give these tracks the motivational sound I look for in a modern musical!

Not What I Expected
I was really excited to see the movie, I guess I didn't realize it was a musical. This would have been wonderful without the music. The story line is amazing and it explained so much about the beginning of the circus. It's not horrible, but you do have to sit through a lot of singing.

Fantastic all star cast
Terrific choreography
I can't believe how much I loved this movie. Hugh Jackman just keeps getting better and better in movies. The original score and beautiful choreography, mixed with a very talented cast make this movie an all star hit. It is now in my top 10 movies of all time, truly great for any age from 9 to 90. I hope you love it as much as I do.

The Mutant Saga Begins
So begins my journey in rewatching the entire X-men series in glorious 4K.
Though it may be 19 years old this movie is still as exhilarating today as it was then,from the special effects to the performances of mckellen and stewart as the leaders of the two different groups of mutants.This film paved the way for so many of the superhero movies we love today (namely the MCU)

After putting off watching this film for some time I decided to give it a go one evening after hearing all of my friends praise it. Unfortunately I didn’t enjoy it as much as they said I would. Even though Hugh Jackman and Zach Efron were brilliant actors I just couldn’t bring myself to put all of my attention into watching the film. I would recommend this film if you enjoy musicals but I wouldn’t bother watching it again.

Hugh Jackman and Patrick Stewart's last(?) (or so they say) outing as Wolverine and Professor Xavier respectively, this is a violent and bloody R-rated stand-alone that owes more to classic Westerns (in particular Shane) than to any of the other X-men movies to date.
Very loosely based in the Old Man Logan graphic novels, in that it follows an aging Wolverine in a future society following an undisclosed disaster, with that about all it takes from those stories.

It was amazing
The movie was absolutely astonishing. Not only was Hugh Jackman included but the songs were great and so catchy and it’s a family friendly film that everyone can enjoy.
However, although it is a great movie, it in a way celebrates P.T Barnum as someone who empowered people when in reality he exploited them for his own benefit.
For instance, one of his earliest “hits” was Joice Heth, a blind, partially paralysed slave. Barnum claimed she was 161 years old (even though she was half that) and when she died, he held a public autopsy and charged people to watch. Obviously we wouldn’t see Jackman do that.
However, without any reference to what Barnum was actually like, I love this film so much and would definitely watch it again.

Amazingly magial
This film blew me away, it takes me a while usually to get emotional over a film. But not this one. Every song in the film is so powerful and will leave you close to tears (especially 'This Is Me') it shows that you should accept and love who you are no matter what you look like and the more you care for a person the more they can be your family no matter the background. I'd recommend to everyone any day

Wow!!!
Having tried to avoid this film since it came out, I finally succumbed and was immediately obsessed.
The story of PT Barnum and his freak show has been filmed before but this film totally dazzled me. Yeah, so it’s not historically correct, take this musical for what it is and you’ll love it!
The songs are catchy, there is a tidy story, and what girl in her right mind doesn’t enjoy the opportunity to dribble over Hugh Jackman and Zac Efron!!
