Cyrano

A man ahead of his time, Cyrano de Bergerac dazzles whether with ferocious wordplay at a verbal joust or with brilliant swordplay in a duel. But, convinced that his appearance renders him unworthy of the love of a devoted friend, the luminous Roxanne, Cyrano has yet to declare his feelings for her—and Roxanne has fallen in love, at first sight, with Christian.

    Stunning musically and cisually
    I quite enjoyed this movie. Interesting g storyline but wow, I was stunned at the intensity had vibes like Les Miserables. Love the interaction between all the characters. Plot was fairly easy to follow. Peter Dinklage did amazing in this move, mostly wanted to watch because of him and it was worth it. Want to watch it again to find all the details I missed. I loved all the music in this movie and will be listening to the soundtrack very soon. The supporting actors did an q amazing job as well. Taking the time to write this review because I loved the movie so much and it was a real treat to watch this. Wouldn't say it was a masterpiece but close!

    No wonder it lost millions
    I have to say at the beginning that I had a feeling I wasn't going to like this movie. I had no idea how much I would dislike it. But I watched it through for one reason: I think that Kelvin Harrison, Jr. Is one of the finest young actors out there. If you haven't seen "Luce" or "Cheavlier", you need to. But in this film, even Harrison didn't shine. Yes, Peter Dinklage does very well here. And Hayley Bennett does well enough.

    But to be honest with you, I think many of the songs in this semi-musical are awful, and often sung poorly. It made me year for the days when Hollywood would have singers do voice-overs so we didn't have to listen to our favorite stars actually sing.

    It's a beautiful production in terms of sets and locales. But that's not really why I decided to watch this film.

    As I said in the title of my review, no wonder it lost millions.
