I do not like musicials !

I do not like musicals. My wife usually drags me to a movie musical with me kicking and screaming all the way. I spend most of my time during the movies checking my watch to see how much time I have left to endure the torture. The only movie musical I ever enjoyed was "West Side Story"until today. Today I went to see "Burlesque"I loved this movie. First of all the film has "Cher" who gave her usual great performance as the owner of a neo-burlesque nightclub trying to avoid foreclosure from the bank. Christina Aquilera makes her dramatic debut as Ali, a small-town singer who takes her shot at stardom performing at the nightclub. I  am sorry to say that Cher only sings two songs in this film, I wish there was more. The real singing star is Aquilera, I am now a big fan of hers after seeing and hearing her performance. I enjoyed this film from the opening scene till the end. The music was upbeat and fun , the dance numbers were great , as were the costumes. It was well done. Go see this movie on the big screen, enjoy.
