The Phantom of the Opera (2004)
Awesome Movie
I had grown up listening to the Phantom soundtrack and always loved it because the music wasn't like most of the other musicals i had seen. I always wanted to see the play version but never had the chance too. So i was a little disappointed with the singing. The first time my father and I heard Gerard Butler(the Phantom) sing we were a little disappointed because we loved the strongness that Michael Crawford(the actor who played Phantom in the play that was recorded on the soundtrack) had when he sang we were disappointed because Mr. Butler sound kinda like a jazz singer rather than an opera singer. But as the movie progressed i started to warm up to him.
I was confused in the beginning when they showed the woman at the auction and through out the whole movie my family and i were trying to figure out who it was because they've seen the play 3 times and know it better than i do. I was also a little confused when they didn't show you what the phantoms face looked like when Christine rips his mask from his face but i later realized they didn't show it so the second time she ripped it from his face it would apply more emphasis on it. I was a little upset that they transferred some of the singing parts to speaking parts but still it was a great movie and all of the changes made the movie amazing. Patrick Wilson(Raoul) did an amazing job in singing and so did Emmy Rossum(Christine).
The sets were beautiful and the cinematography was wonderful especially the beginning with the black and white and then turning to color as the chandelier rose.
Overall one of the greatest movies yet. Should be up for an Academy Award because it was so awesome.
Pirates of the Caribbean (2003)
Great movie and the actors were amazing!!
I am sorry if this comment offends you.
I can't believe that anyone could not like the performance by Johnny Depp. The way he acted was very much the personality of a pirate in this time period. Also though I may not like Kiera Knitley I found that she did an amazing performance. You cant say that a woman in that time period can't act like a woman of today not EVERYONE has to fit a stereo type. I my self don't always fit to a stereo type. And Orlando Bloom did a very good job in this movie too. And the stunts in this movie were amazing.The sets were also very elaborate and awe-inspiring.And of course the costumes were beautiful.Overall this is a great movie that you just have to see.
