Music Of The Night

This is the movie Webber fans and Phantom fans have waited for and it lives up to the stage version in every sense with stunning costumes, and wonderful sets. This movie deserved more Academy Award accolades than it was given.

This movie made feel like I was transported into a hidden world of passion, maddness, and music. Emmy Rossum delievered a stunning performance as Chirstine who is charming, sweet, and innocent-- I can only hope to see more of her-especially on-stage. But, the best performance in my opinon came from Patrick Wilson who plays Chirstine's protector and lover he does a simply stunning job and I find myself falling in love with him each time I hear his beautiful voice. Gerard Butler in my opinon was a poor choice for the mysterious Phantom who takes control of Christine's mind- his voice didn't seem to fit the role despite the fact that he is the veteran stage performer in this movie.

The newly added song is perfect for the feel of the movie and is beautifully sung by Minnie Driver in the end credits. There are a few moments I will skip watching this DVD "Prima Donna" will be one of them.

All in all this a beautiful movie and it's one to own in your collection especially if you love musicals or the movie "Moulin Rouge." I can't wait to get this one! Please rent or buy this one and listen to the music of the night.
