People have told me:
- You just don't like musicals.
- You're not familiar with the play.
- You were expecting a traditional fairy tale.

No, no, no... I like some musicals, some I don't like. Same with Sondheim's plays.

I shouldn't have to be familiar with the play to enjoy the movie.

I don't care if it's not a traditional fairy tale. I was hoping that it wasn't a traditional Disney fairy tale movie.

It's just a bad, non-entertaining movie. Spotty performances and not a single memorable song. And it just gets worse and worse as it goes along. It felt like a four hour film.

My worst movie of the year, and I saw Tusk.

This isn't really the type of musical that appeals to the masses.

True, but it generally helps to know what to expect.

This is laughable. Every major actor was terrific in this film and could actually sing unlike Les Mis last year.

And if you don't think "Agony" is a memorable song, you have no sense of humor or take yourself far too seriously.
