I have not seen any threads on here about this movie so I searched and still didn’t see any. It has a 90% audience score from Rotten Tomatoes and I agree with that score. I went last night to watch it with my wife and kids and we all 4 loved it. Jackman and Efron were both very good in their roles. This movie was a lot of fun.

Honestly may be the top movie I've seen this past year.. the critics of course thought it lacked character depth and there were a couple of awkward scenes but damn if it wasn't a fun movie to watch..

Was easily my favorite movie of the year. I’ve already seen it twice and have listened to nothing but the soundtrack since the first viewing

I enjoyed it. Would have liked a little more details on PT Barnum's history but that's not really what they were going for.

Downloaded the soundtrack on Spotify as soon as we got in the car after the movie. My in laws wanted to take the kids to a movie today and they picked watching this one again when we just watched it last night. My father in laws response when it ended was, “Wow”! I really can’t get over how much fun this movie was. We will probably be back to watch it again.

Probably the best movie I’ve seen all year. Critics were wrong. Word of mouth is driving this. I’m starting to see more on social media about it.
It was really, really good.
It’s a musical, but the songs drive the plot. And the soundtrack is addictive.

Didn't like it. My teenage daughters thought it was horrible. Standard contrived insprational stories. Formula music and songs. Wish Tom Thumb had a bigger part, the only entertaining part of the movie.

My wife wanted to go and I'm glad we did. Apparently this has been a passion project for Jackman for sometime. Loved this film. Recommend.

We took the kiddos (8 and 11) and we all loved it.
Zendaya looked hot

My 9 year old girl is listening to the music from this movie right now. I didn’t see it but my wife and kid loved the hell out of it.

I'll probably go see it tonight.

Hollywood probably wouldn't like his political history.

Saw this Sunday night and really, really enjoyed it. A great fun movie that you can just get lost into for the length of the film.
Soundtrack is really great and currently #1 on the billboard 200 chart.

Took my 6 yo daughter to it last night and probably the most enjoyable movie experience I’ve had in my adult life. Movie was good, music was great, was clean but not kiddie type movie. We’ve had the sound track blasting all morning as she twirls and jumps off furniture

Family wanted to see it so, i agreed to go along. Sat down and said wait, this is musical? WTF did I get myself into? I hate musicals.
Actually really enjoyed the movie though. Never figure Hugh Jackman as the musical type. I mean he's Wolverine !
and Michelle Williams has aged nicely.

he has a few Tonys. and was Jean Valjean in Les Mis... so yes he can sing

if you had told me she was going to be the only one off of Dawson's Creek to have lasting success i'd have laughed in your face 15 years ago.
i enjoyed the movie. historically inaccurate AF, but a fun watch and great sound track. rare to have a genuinely PG movie that everybody can enjoy not made by Pixar.

And she actually did all her own singing in it as well. Never realized she could sing.
The only person who did not do their own singing is Rebecca Ferguson(played Jenny Lind).
Crazy rotten tomatoes only gives this movie 53%, yet IMDb gives it 8/10 and Rober Ebert gives it a 3.5/4....not to mention that it gets a 95% from audience viewers.
I've been telling friends they really should go see this while it is still in the theaters. I will likely go see it again on the big screen cause I enjoyed it so much the first time.
Soundtrack is still #1 on the billboard 200
