Very very predictable, including the post credit scene !!!
Lack of good storyline.
if their story seems completely bonkers, almost like a feverish work of fiction, you ain't heard nothing yet.
While it doesn't offer any answers, it both thrills and makes you think.
As a fervent musical fan It's weird that I never gotten around watching this beautiful movie. Never had I hoped that it would be this good.The movie throws you into a pool of emotions right from the strong and dark beginning to the epic ending. The acting is amazing, the actors sing very strong, beautifully and vocally correct. The costumes are amazing and camerawork is next level.At the ending I cried of pure joy, I never cry during movies and when I do, it hit my at my core. This is a movie.I will be seeing this many more times.
Let's face it, I'm a big Hugh Jackman fan, and due to the media and critics referring to the film as "sensational", I eagerly anticipated watching the film. Boy, was I disappointed. The film is no doubt visually stunning, and from that perspective a masterpiece, actually. The plot, however, left very little to be desired. No one in this film seem to recognize anyone, and everyone seem to die for no apparent reason, and they have a little boy lead a revolution!! The young lovers in the form of Eddie Redmayne and Amanda Seyfried becomes inseparable after having just met. Nothing about this film is convincing, not even the singing (which, quite frankly, became way too much for me to swallow). Russell Crowe is completely miscast and his character also dies in the most pathetic way. I mean, seriously?!
The music is forgettable, the plot (and I blame Victor Hugo also for this) is saccharine and cheap, the understanding of French revolutionary impulses and actions is mediocre, and the entertainment value very small. Perhaps on the stage it might be more impressive but I have rarely spent a less worthwhile 2 1/2 hours of viewing. The popularity of this musical only testified to the low level of popular taste in this country -- and perhaps also in France where the darn story originated.
That what i got to say. When i was watching this film in my favorite year of my life so far 2017, i thought what i watching is not film, i can say it's a wonderful artistic painting. thank to that man who's directing this film, and all cast and crew, Hugh Jackman as Jean Valjean, Russell Crowe as Javert, and Anne Hathaway as Fantine. I thank Everybody who take this film as i watched.
