Well made, entertaining and clever, songs and dances. I enjoyed the original non-musical with Ginger Rogers but the musical version adds more to the entertainment value.
It is amazing! Chicago is a true tribute to the stage show!

First-time feature director Rob Marshall and Oscar-winning "Gods and Monsters" screenwriter Bill Condon have spun the dark tale of two murdering floozies into a widely palatable entertainment, but the long-gestating film comes up short in rhythm and personality. Full Review

Not since the 1972 'Cabaret' has there been a movie musical this stirring, intelligent and exciting. Full Review
