Review of Burlesque (2010) by Tvjerry — 12 Dec 2010
The traditional story of a small-town girl (Christina Aguilera) who comes to the big city and becomes a star is placed in an LA burlesque house run by Cher. Since you already know what happens, it had better be well-mounted.
On many fronts, this is. The pacing never lags, the plot is simple, the dialogue scenes are short and snappy and there's plenty of high-gloss performance. Cher gets 2 numbers, but most of the singing goes to Aguiulera, who is a knock out.
If you're into this sort of thing, you'll get a glitzy gob of glamour.
