I saw it for the first time last night and while I thought the acting was alright and the camera work awesome, I thought it was really tasteless.

If it had original songs it would've been way better, but as it was I just thought they were mocking the original artists. I didn't like it at all. I was horrorfied when they covered Like A Virgin.

That was just bad.

Plus, if she had tuberculosis, how come she's a singer? I doubt she would've been able to sing in her condition, let alone dance around and even pretend she was okay. She seemed to slip in and out of sickness.

The only character I actually liked was Ewen McGregors character, because, at least he had some sort of substance.

And why did they make the set like a theatre set? Now, they were good sets. But, why not just go to see it in the theatre, then?

They used other artist's music in order for their audience to relate.

As for the little glitches, a lot of the movie seemed to based on willing suspension of disbelief anyays.

i watched that movie with my girlfriend at her house.....

and feel asleep during it....

The film was a Hollywood Fantasia if you were, i liked the film it had some seriously crazy scenes and it was colour colour colour all the way through.

Hats off to Kidman and Mcgregor they worked brilliantly.

Peace Renegade,

I loved the way this movie was made.
However I hated its actual content(aside from the absinthe).
I was in awe and discust all at once.

Wow interesting comments =)

I honestly liked it for what it was. I agree the content was at times pretty tasteless... I thought it was cute and wouldn't exacltly call it a tragidy eiher.
But I found it humerous and the flashy outfits and color scheme throughout the entire film was completely awesome! But alas It's one of those movies that you really have to be in that taste range to enjoy.

Still Hangin'
