Moulin Rouge!

Despite of being a musical, the background score and the songs in here aren't that good as the makers think. When the feature portrays drama, it seems cheesy and corny and when it focuses on drawing laughs, it looks like they aren't serious about it. Baz Luhrman and Craig Pearce; the writers, have written an uneven paced script that may be good in bits and pieces but not as a whole concrete material. Baz Luhrman's execution skill develops as the film ages on screen for the first half of it seems redundant and unsupervised. The performance is the only key that helps one hold on to this feature as Nicole Kidman and Ewan McGregor are convincingly good in it. Moulin Rouge! is brilliant on technical aspects like costume design, production design and choreography with a stellar performance but what lacks in here is a reason or a soul that makers fails to install in it.
