I just saw it last night and I thought it was brilliant! Have to admit, there were some bits were it seemed too slow and i started to get bored, but i thought the ending was so dramatic it completely made up for it! I was in tears by the end - and it takes a lot to make me cry in a film. It really was heartbreaking to see the phantom left at the end. And I also agree that the opening sequence with the chandeliar, and the music, and everything changing to colour, was superb.Two things:
1. - Did the song 'Masquerade' make anyone else think of Adam Ants video for 'Prince Charming'?2. Who would you choose - the phantom or Raoul? I mean, the phantom is a genious, and even though he has a deformed face he is still very good looking! - but thats just my opinion!
You cried too? It was heartbreaking at the end wasn't it?
I'm not sure about your first question as i've never seen Adam Ants video for 'Prince Charming' but to answer your second question i would pick the phantom, yeah he was deformed on one side of the face but he was amazing! That voice and his eyes!!! mmmmmmm. Everyone i was with agreed that he was very good looking besides the deformation abviously. Raoul just didn't do anything for me ok he wasn't bad looking but he was just too...boring for me.

You honestly thought "Flatliners" was better than "A Time to Kill"? 😕
"Takes Cinemaddiction off ignore list."
Yeah that was my favorite movie of the 90's.I like Time to Kill but I liked Flatliners better.I could really relate to that movie and the characters in it plus Kevin Bacon is my favorite actor and he was really great in that movie as were all the others as well.
i thought it was ok, as mentioned parts were slow however, there was so much poise and glamour, not to mention beautiful settings to look at, and i thought minnie driver did a phenomenal job! she wore the cutest clothes.....overall this movie gets a 7.6 out of a scale 1-10 for me, i grade realy hard!
AUGH! DON'T TALK TO ME ABOUT THAT MOVIE! I've seen Michael Crawford, the orignal Phantom on stage (bootleg actually) and when you listen to him, or anyone else that played him on stage, you soon relize that The movie Phantom CANNOT SING! 😠 Also, does anyone else seem to find it that the movie Phantom was casted mainly because he was young and good looking? Doesn't that kinda kill the point of the character? Forgive my little rant, I just had to speak my mind.

It isnt coming out yet, so how could anyone've seen it? Im going to when it comes out though.
I' m in doubt whether to go watch it or not. I' ve seen the musical on stage and I don' t want to be disappointed by the motion picture like I was after watching Les Misérables on screen. There' s an extra dimension on stage which you don' t have at theatre.
