I wanted to like it and looked to excuse authors till the very end. But, after all I cannot even say whom this movie was targeted to. People who like and know the musical would be very disappointed and not just because it's "not like a stage one". The thing is that despite the unlimited cinema abilities it lacks a very simple thing - the sound. It simply does not sound well, very flat and lifeless even for a simple stereo, not even mentioning Dolby sound that it's supposed to have. Well, there are many questionable deviations but for god sake, what was the reason to make old Deuteronomy a non-signing elderly woman? I'm still trying to comprehend what kind of screwed logic the authors should have to make her whispering in the finale. So, who may like it? No idea? Perhaps people who never saw a good performance but generally like music and can open for themselves the world of musical theater.
