Title: an embarassment to the musical genre!
Product review: I felt sick after watching this movie. I thought it would be like Singing in the Rain, which is one of my favorite musicals. Instead, I get cheesy acting, overproduction, a sub-average dialogue, and the worst plot for any musical I've ever seen. The music was commendable, which is why I give it two stars. But the dance numbers and the movie in general are so overproduced, it's practically megalomaniacal. As stated above, the acting and dialogue are boring. And not only is the story beyond cliche, but in the end the guy gets the girl for no reason we can think of, in the most vile Hollywood ending ever. Stick with The Music Man instead. Or Singing in the Rain. Or Showboat. Just not this . . .
