My opinion of this movie might be a bit skewed because musicals are not my thing for the most part, and for some reason I wasn't aware that this was a musical....... That being said this movie was produced with an outwardly & overly dramatic excess of pity with a very dark story that feels 'pushed' well beyond necessity, it was a truly awkward and uncomfortable experience that I just kept hoping would settle in to rhythm of some kind,...I did see a few patrons leave and I considered it but I didn't know if my girlfriend was enjoying it or not and I think I was in a mild form of shock most of the time, She did say she enjoyed it more than me after the fact but had kind of the same opinions of most of it.
