Here I was, thinking of what movie to use and start my summer Cinema streak.
Well, while scrolling through my neverending library of downloaded unwatched films, I came across one I promised myself I would absolutely watch, plus it was the perfect genre to what I was yearning to watch.
So I asked myself..
Dearest seki, why not start your cinema stream with the greatest show?
Plot
This story tells us the tale of show business sensation PT Barnum.
It shows his rise to fame from humble beginnings using to his colorful acts, quick wits, pure determination and ever wide imagination.
Well what can I say about this film?
I LOVED IT!!!!❤️🔥🔥🔥🔥
I loved every bit of it.
From the beautiful circus acts to the wonderful songs and emotion's felt.
It was just one would expect from the greatest show.
Now there are a few things that I loved exceptionally well in this show.
Here they are...
1. The Cast
This show had a lovely cast list, folks of different nationalities and different places of Fame, both old faces in the movie industry and new, but the one face I was happy to see was this handsome bloke😭🥺
Now normally, I've been a fan of musical's ever since watching the film High School Musical, in my younger years.
So it was a real treat, seeing my long lost actor Zac Efron on here and seeing that age hasn't made him lose his voice nor moves - it may have made it a bit better 😭😫
Ahh I feel my fanboy urges coming back on 😭😭😭
Another special actor that they brought on is the ever talented Zendaya and it was an even better surprise to ship both her and Zac together. The chemistry was mind blowing 😭, the choreography was even better 🤯.
Siri... Find me a trapeze girlfriend 😭😭
Regardless of the love interest, the other characters were just as colorful, entertaining and crucial to the story.
2. The Choreography and Musical Numbers
One beautiful thing about musicals are they're ability to pass on the emotions through their music and dance.
This show had quality dance and song routines and my best was...
With the lovely choreography and voices, they conveyed the story well, shared their emotions and really brought out the true essence of a musical 🥺
3. The Main Character
It wouldn't be a stretch to say PT Barnum was everyone's favorite character in the movie, even me (if we remove Zac from the list😅).
He had the genuine vibe for show business and I feel it just wasn't acting.
Everything he did was so natural and humane.
With his skills he made the audience fall in love with his character, understand his shortcomings and be moved by his feelings when he rose above those shortcomings.
I'm trying my best not to spoil it (not even a little bit) for the unlikely chance that I'm not the last to watch this film, and as such I must end my review here.
These are my more accurate and organized thoughts of The Greatest Showman.
It was an absolute joy to watch and I'm grateful for having come across the movie.
I give it a solid 10 stars and if you haven't watched it...
You're really missing the greatest show.
