There's no in between with this one. You either love it, or hate it... I Loved it... On which side are you?

Loved it.

It was not the best movie I've ever seen - but it was fairly awesome in that it took music that is not exactly great music today (they play this stuff in supermarkets and it's good stuff when you're stuck on the road, driving) and put really good actors to work in the various roles. I found myself singing songs from the musical today, having seen the movie yesterday for the first time.

I get your meaning... I was also singing...!

Meh, I'm ok with it. So-so. I neither love it nor hate it.

I much preferred the Broadway version, however.

Loved it! The movie is exactly what it was supposed to be. People take things to seriously. They need to just take it for what it is. We thought it was great!

I think the first 30 mins are a bit corny and a bit off, honestly once Tom Cruise gets involved I think the movie takes off both on music and comedy. I love it

Ton Cruise was a great surprise!

Sorry, but I think there is some for in-between. I loved a lot of it, but it wore a little thin. Alec Baldwin rocks.

Absolutely loved it. Have seen it way more times than I care to admit.

I loved it. I found myself smiling through the whole movie. Yes, it is campy, but it owns it!

Tom Cruise made this movie bearable. he was outstanding. Paul G was good. the rest of the movie eh.

It started very slow. Guess, you have to love the music.

Loved it.

I got this for my 11 year old kids to watch, then decided that they shouldn't (!). So, I watched it myself and I'm now on my fourth time through tonight.

Suprisingly good entertainment.

I don't get the haters. Not understanding it. I'm confused. Think I'll become a postal worker, stop doing my meds, don't get that injection up my butt I need every month to keep my bipolarism under control and going crazy on the haters.

Loved this movie. Wish I seen it on the big screen (Got a feeling it'll happen again one day). Bought the DVD - it's been played quite a few times. One of them movies you can play while doing dishes, cleaning up the house, having fun with your mate and falling asleep to on repeat. Sometimes I actually sit back and watch it :).
