In a word, fantastic. Amazing sets and cinematography, great casts and some really good songs. Very well done, if you like musicals.

    It's pretty much all style, no substance. But, it's extremely good style, just turn the brain off and enjoy the show...and music. I cannot wait to watch it again.

    The music or the numbers didn't get me initially, then the performances started to drag me in, then the numbers started clicking, then I started appreciating it as a whole, concept, characters, music, style...message was kind of confused, but it wrapped itself up in a nice stylistic bow. I ended up enjoying it quite a bit more than I initially thought I would. Not a happy happy musical, more of a homage to Italian cinema and the psychology of creative people in that culture in the 60s. It was good...enough so that I'm thinking about it and posting anyway.
