Cosette, now I remember.
The Acting
Okay, I was very impressed with the choice of the cast. This was my first time hearing Anne Hathaway sing as she previously the original choice for Christine Daae in the 2004 Phantom of the Opera before Emmy Rossum got the part. Anne's rendition of I Dreamed a Dream really brought me to tears, I even had the soundtrack and I cried non-stop!
I knew that Hugh Jackman was the perfect Valjean and his voice is very calm that he convinced everyone that he's the perfect Valjean. So well done Hugh!
The only disappointment was Russell Crowe, everybody has been complaining of his singing. He doesn't sounds very convincing at all, so sorry Russell Crowe.
The Story-line
The story is 80% the same as the stage version, but it was shortened to avoid repetition. Especially in the songs, however I love the presentation in the movie as it represents light and darkness, like in the musical. So bravo to the director, Tom Hooper.
The Songs
As mentioned, the songs were trimmed to make the movie shorter than its original version. So I would not be surprise at all, the song Dog Eat Dogs was not feature for obvious reasons.
At the End of the Day
Thank you so much for reading this, we hope that you enjoy watching the movie and share your thoughts about it.
