The Phantom Of The Opera - Comments

Absolutely love this movie.. in the musical genre it trumps every musical I've seen. I'd love to see it on Broadway one day.

I thought Gerard Butler was great acting-wise, but his singing sounded like Barney, a la Michael Crawford. :P

I haven't seen this movie since 4th grade, but I can remember crying. Also, I remember a part with a rose? I'll have to see it again, soon.

p.s. to all of you talking about a sequel... the rumors are true. "Phantom: Love Never Dies" comes out in London next March, and on Broadway next November. You can listen to the new song "'Til I Hear You Sing" on youtube. :)

I do indeed love the movie, and Gerard Butler, but nothing, [i]nothing[/i], will ever compare with the original play. Ever. With Michael Crawford and Sarah Brightman. Brilliant. Also, if you've only seen the movie and not the play, I suggest you go see the play. It's magical in every form of the word.

I have seen Les Miserables (spelled wrong I know)
It is truly a spectacular film.

It is my favorite musical. I even had to put it before 'Chicago'.

The music in this movie is amazing.

It's my favourite musical, loved the review.

I'm head over heels for this movie!

I'm glad so many of you enjoyed the film + the article(:

The Phantom of the Opera was originally a French novel by Gaston Leroux (may have mispelled his name) While the musical and movie are wonderful, they do the book no justice. It is simply phenomenal. Anyway, I was so jealous when I found out that one of my friends had seen this on Broadway. In my opinion, the best musicals are those that are based off of the classics (Jekyll and Hyde, Les Miserables etc.) I highly reccommend those two to anyone who fell in love with the Phantom of the Opera.

I saw the Broadway play. It was amazing. Andrew Lloyd Webber is an absolute musical genius. I love all of his stuff, but I definitely think that Phantom is his best work.
The film was also such a great adaptation of the musical. I absolutely love it. I've seen it dozens of times, yet it never gets old. Gerard and Emmie made a perfect duo.

I love this film :)

I absolutely adore this film.

I loved this so much. My sister and I were like - WOW- when we heard the Gerald Butler sing. It just captured us.

I had heard about it and just saw the movie a month ago... I did not think there would be so much singing... it was good but the movie made me sleepy.

The Phantom of the Opera is one of my favorite movies. It's absolutely captivating and beautiful. I would love to go see it on Broadway. =D

I love the movie and I want to see the production now! Good article, by the way.

The live show is coming to my town next year. I'm so excited. I <3 this movie. :]

this is an amazing movie, and i have a cassette of the original musical but ive never seen it live and really hope to one day <3
