Amazon.com essential video:
A dazzling and yet frequently maddening bid to bring the movie musical kicking and screaming into the 21st century, Baz Luhrmann's Moulin Rouge bears no relation to the many previous films set in the famous Parisian nightclub. This may appear to be Paris in the 1890s, with can-can dancers, bohemian denizens like Toulouse-Lautrec (John Leguizamo), and ribaldry at every turn, but it's really Luhrmann's pop-cultural wonderland. Everyone and everything is encouraged to shatter boundaries of time and texture, colliding and careening in a fast-cutting frenzy that thinks nothing of casting Elton John's "Your Song" 80 years before its time. Nothing is original in this kaleidoscopic, absinthe-inspired love tragedy--the words, the music, it's all been heard before. But when filtered through Luhrmann's love for pop songs and timeless showmanship, you're reminded of the cinema's power to renew itself while paying homage to its past.
Luhrmann's overall success with his third "red-curtain" extravaganza (following Strictly Ballroom and William Shakespeare's Romeo & Juliet) is wildly debatable: the scenario is simple to the point of silliness, and how can you appreciate choreography when it's been diced into hash by attention-deficit editing? Still, there's something genuine brewing between costars Ewan McGregor and Nicole Kidman (as, respectively, a poor writer and his unobtainable object of desire), and their vocal talents are impressive enough to match Luhrmann's orgy of extraordinary sets, costumes, and digital wizardry. The movie's novelty may wear thin, along with its shallow indulgence of a marketable soundtrack, but Luhrmann's inventiveness yields moments that border on ecstasy, when sound and vision point the way to a moribund genre's joyously welcomed revival. --Jeff Shannon

The movie was so long and drawn out with nothing but songs. Even the first fifteen minutes had nothing but musicals. My entire family had to shut this movie off and return it for a full refund at our local rental store it was so bad.
If you have a taste for cheesy musicals with a bad story line then this just might be your movie.
The movie felt like it was so drawn out even in the first fifteen minutes of watching it! I would say this was the worst musical movie ever!

Pulls, Tugs and Dances with all of your emotions from happy-dance feelings, excitement, and explicit appearance of the insinuation of sexual desire in all of its wonderful forms without crudity--laughter and the finality of deep heart wrenching grief that the audience experiences. This movie moves you up and down the emotional scale. Absolutely amazing music and dancing! Loved it even though I was exhausted after each time I saw it. Think I've seen it 4 or 5 times.

So, I saw this movie for the first time with some friends about 3 years ago, and I have to admit that I didn't like it. I was mad at the ending. But, I found that I kept thinking about the story. Life was busy, so about a year later I rented the movie, to see if I was remembering it correctly and if I liked it. Same thing. And now, 2 years later... I finally bought it. And, I have to admit that I really do like this movie, but it's different. It's eccentric. It's beautiful. And crazy. And funny. ... Read More

Baz Luhrmann is a genius!
Any fan of his other movies (Strictly Ballroom and the newer Australia) will simply love this!
Even if it is a musical :)
