And also, don't they sing all the dialogue in the film?
Yes, they did and I was worried it wouldn't work, that it would be weird to see them singing when the camera is so up-close on them, but it really did work and you forget that people don't usually sing at each other after the first fifteen minutes.
I would see it just for Hugh Jackman, except, y'know, singing. Gah.
What do you have against singing?! This is the greatest musical ever made! And it makes more sense than the type of musicals where they all talk and then randomly burst into song - at least this musical is consistent and everybody sings all the time! (not that I don't love the other kind of musical as well, mind you!) I know you don't hate singing, so what gives with your hate-on for musicals? Besides, it's Hugh Jackman singing, woman!
How about have you read the book or seen any of the non-musical movies then? The story seems right up your alley.
