The Best Musical Of Our Generation

5 stars

19 Jan 2019

Well as the song says, "This is the greatest show".

The Greatest showman is an epic feel good family movie, that follows the life of P.T Barnum and how he brought mystry of the great unknown and unusual along with the unique into the eyes of society, making "A Million Dreams" "Come Alive".

This is a classic tale of the underdog, that said "From Now On" I will defy the odds stacked against me to not just climb the ladder of success but enjoy doing it.

This film contains an all star cast, like X-men's own Hugh Jackman, A very Grown up (high school musicals Troy Balton) Zac Efron, Oz's very own Glinda, Michelle Williams, KC undercover star Zendaya and many more ... fantastically composed songs and amazing singing which has the ability to make the viewer want to leap from their seat and sing "This is Me", as they watch the magic unfold on the golden screen.

I have watched this film a hundred times and it is "Never Enough.

So for a great family feel good movie, that touches the heart of people of all walks of life and ages and that literally has the ability to make you smile like the Cheshire Cat and your stomach tingle like your walking a "Tightrope" I recommend The Greatest Showam.

The directing is artfully beautiful and the storyline is gripping. But what is so wonderful about this trully great film is that it is inspiring and makes you want to "Rewrite the Stars" and explore your own creativity.

A must see movie.
