I was worried going in that this musical would fall in with the other movie musicals of recent years, and be if ired and bland, Examples bbeing CATS and Disney's various remakes. but this couldn't be further from the truth. They are jokes compared to WEST SIDE STORY. In fact, I'm dissapointed because I'm afraid people will skip it because if that reason! No! GO SEE WEST SIDE STORY. It could be if not IS the BEST. Movie musical EVER. the songs are performed like they were intended to be, not remixed or "covered" (looking at you CATS >:( ) IT IS AN AMAZINGLY well done, well casted, well performed, heart wrenching, tear jerking festival of amazement. Go. See. West. side. story.
