Outstanding performance altogether! The choreography, the music, the singing, the acting... all brilliant. Very enchanting and entertaining till the very end.
Being a big fan of Notting Hill, one cannot overlook the similarities. Not only the story, but even the lead actor happens to look a great deal like Hugh Grant.
If I have to criticize one thing, it's definitely the tiny microphones dangling from the performers' foreheads. They're probably invisible to the live audience, but watching it on my home theatre and specially when they zoom in on the face, it's a bit annoying.
This said, there are some nice tributes to Austrian celebrities such as Freud, Mozart, Schwarzenegger, Waltz... just to name a few.
Although I'm not the biggest fan of musicals, I highly recommend this fast paced romantic comedy to every music lover. You'll enjoy it.
