Review of Les Misérables (2012) by Scosor — 28 Dec 2012
Incredible! ly boring. Amazing! ly bloated. Terrific! ally overwrought and tasteless. When everything on display is Earnest! and Heartfelt!, it renders it all meaningless. Never subtle, always strained, the musical is shockingly claustrophobic instead of soaring, and needlessly literal at all turns.
A few observations: When making a musical, it might be a good idea to hire singers for the lead roles.
