Oh this movie was amazing. My parents have been fans of the musical since I can remember and I previously have watched the movie musical version when I was quite young. Although my pre-teen self did not understand fully the whole movie the one thing I did and always will remember are the hauntingly beautiful songs. I was excited when I heard that they made a movie of it with an all-star cast including Hugh Jackman, Russel Crowe, Anne Hathaway, Eddie Redmayne and Amanda Seyfried. I give the movie a 9/10. Music was beautiful, story moving and translated well onto the big screen (yes I did tear up a few times throughout the movie and I discovered I wasn't the only one as others in the movie theatre were sniffling and holding tissues to their faces!) I also believe that the choice of cast was pretty perfect. Anne Hathaway's rendition of I dreamed a dream was incredible, I was captivated. The thing I also liked about the movie was that it really makes you appreciate what you have and how tough life could be back then.
Oh and did anyone else swoon over Eddie Redmayne? He just exuded charm and how can we say no to a man in formal attire.
