Bob Fosse's sexy cynicism still shines in Chicago, a faithful movie adaptation of the choreographer-director's 1975 Broadway musical. Of course the story, all about merry murderesses and tabloid fame, is set in the Roaring '20s, but Chicago reeks of '70s disenchantment--this isn't just Fosse's material, it's his attitude, too. That's probably why the movie's breathless observations on fleeting fame and fickle public taste already seem dated. However, Renée Zellweger and Catherine Zeta-Jones are beautifully matched as Jazz Age vixens, and Richard Gere gleefully sheds his customary cool to belt out a showstopper. (Yes, they all do their own singing and dancing.) Whatever qualms musical purists may have about director Rob Marshall's cut-cut-cut style, the film's sheer exuberance is intoxicating. Given the scarcity of big-screen musicals in the last 25 years, that's a cause for singing, dancing, cheering. And all that jazz. --Robert Horton

Wonderful dancing and story line. I especially thought the late scene where the two women come on stage brandishing their guns was funnee! A parody of their own lives.

Loved the film and loved it more on Blu-ray. Wish they'd put more than action/special effects films on Blu-ray!

I admit I never saw the stage musical so the plot and characters were new to me. Nonetheless, Chicago is a rollicking, foot-tapping, hot musical that doesn't apologize for its direction and content. Roxie Hart is a naive but strong-willed young woman who's determined to be famous. Velma Kelly is a veteran of the stage but is sparsely rewarded despite her dedication and talent. The two eventually collide when Roxie begins winning hearts (and the press) with her story while Velma must face the reality ... Read More

Excellent, one of the best musicals ever made. The cast is terrific and they all did their own singing.
