Very under rated
One of the best musicals I have seen.It is a classic and could even have reached Masterpiece status if it was done with a better production that was less rushed.Overall more entertaining than the original Carmen due to more up to date portrayal of this tragic but often true tale.The acting here is only average but adequate enough and is compensated by the very good musical deliveries.Incorporation of the best techniques from Music Video productions into modern musicals is an idea that is long overdue and in due time will be eventually done more often as evidenced by the successful film Maulin Rouge.Music videos have developed very good visual effects and styles that will translate very well into movies.Why this has not been done more often is probably due to Hollywood powers that be who are trying to protect their brand of directing styles from MTV influence as much as they can.This delaying tactic will not hold on forever and eventually,the mainstream will catch on and ostracised Music Video directors/technicians will be let into the movie industry more.This is inevitable.There are so much incedible Music Videos being released that are such masterpieces,they have better overall production quality than most junk movies Hollywood releases year after year.It just so happens that Hollywood has great stars/actors and more minutes per show on hand.Beyonce Knowles also displayed that she is a talent to be reconned with and the average acting she displayed in this musical is incredible for a first timer and I am sure she will get better as she continues to blossom.She is a unique all around talent that must not be under estimated.Bravo to the Hip Hop communty for creating this remake.This musical is only for those who like Hip Hop and uderstand the classics as well,and for big fans of the lead Actors/Musicians here…..
