Marie's Reviews

This movie was a little bit slow throughout, but still enjoyable. A surprising ending that left me feeling it was a really clever story. I liked it.

This movie is quite slow to start, but once it gets going there are quite a few laughs. Real Australian humour.

A very strange film. The black and white was a little hard to watch, although I guess it gave it some authenticity. Quite a slow film and I'm not quite sure of the point of it, however, it did keep me watching until the end, so it must have maintained some degree of suspense. I could have given this one a miss.

I agree with the other comments, this is a very slow film. I would say the movie was quite artistic, but it was also very odd and didn't keep me interested. I enjoyed Colin Firth, but apart from that there really wasn't much point to watching this movie.

A beautiful story. I think the fact they used actual ice skaters made it even better as it was more real. I really enjoyed this one.

Quite a slow movie, but I still really enjoyed it. I think Meryl Streep's performance doesn't disappoint in this movie.

I haven't read the book, so I have nothing to compare it to, but I thought this movie was very well done. I enjoyed the dance scenes and thought the storyline was good. Worth watching.

Good, light-hearted entertainment.

I really didn't find the humour in this movie funny. Violence, drug use and alot of swearing, so avoid it if you are easily offended.

I have mixed feelings about this movie. It was a little slow, but there were a few parts that made me laugh. There is lots of swearing, which some may find offensive, and when the movie finished it left me feeling the whole thing was a little bit pointless, but strangely it still kept me intrigued until the end.

Michael really was a tireless performer and this movie is a good insight into that and what fans were in for with his final tour. However, I still feel like the movie was a little off the mark and it didn't do the show justice. In fact, I feel I got more from the Special Features than the actual movie. The SFs gave more of the making of the concert and the tremendous amount of work that went into it (including a rather stunning section on the costume design), whereas the movie was mostly just footage of Michael singing (rehearsing) his songs. So, for me the movie felt a little detached and impersonal. Watch the movie and enjoy the songs and the dancing, but then watch the SFs if you want a true insight into the magnitude of the show.

I thought this movie was really clever and very well done. An original idea and the visuals were amazing. I found the characters quite life-like. The only downside to this movie is it is 2 1/2 hours long, so make sure you have plenty of time to watch it.

Loved it! I found it hilarious.

I'm really not sure why I bothered with this one as it was as bad as I thought it would be. I kept watching and waiting for it to get better, but it just got worse. I actually found the special effects quite fake, and thought it was highly predictable and way over the top. I was bored the whole way through and couldn't wait for it to end. Give it a miss.
