Just saw the movie. What do you think about it? It's not very realistic (all that modern music in Paris 1900), but I still liked it. It's one of those big movies with a capital "B".
The "Show Must Go On" part was fabulous. It really showed how strong and powerful that song is. The part where Nicole Kidman sang "My make-up may be flaking..." was very touching. Reminded me of what happened to Freddie, after all he also died from a lung disease (caused by AIDS).
If you haven't seen this movie, watch it. The SMGO part alone gives you a reason to watch it.

*gasp* i love that movie
probably mainly because of The Show Must Go On
I love Moulin Rouge, not because of TSMGO, but because it's an awesome, completely original film.

it is one of my fave film EVER. it's bloody great, ewan mc gregor and nicole kidman are amazing and i like all the song performed, especially "your song" and "el tango de roxanne"
..and remember: the greatest thing you'll ever learn is just to love and to be loved in return...
I just saw it a couple of weeks ago.
I never knew Ewan could sing so beautifully! But apart from that it isn't one of my favorite movies by the way, it was ok I guess...
I saw this film back in Xmas when I gave my sis the DVD.
IMO, the plot was very predictable. If I can predict what was going to happen, I can't enjoy the film. However, the cinematography was excellent. McGregor's vocals were fab, I wasnt that keen on Kidman's honestly, she sang well.
I also didnt like the film's redition of TSMGO, very dreary.
Well I thought Ewan has a terrific voice, really gave me goosebumps! I bought the soundtrack a couple of days ago, brilliant! I never knew that David Bowie sang Nature Boy, btw!!
i loved this movie!!!i watched it at the cinema when it came out...and innedaitely i "suggested" it to friends...and on the TSMGO part i jumped up from the chair telling to anyone "hey..this is from Queen!!!!" hi hi hi hi

saw this after being severely sun burnt at the beach (which made it painful) but i absolutely adored the film and it spurned onn an obsession blah blah. I think it is super fabulous. end of story.
