LA Movie Review- Les Miserables

\

This film is about singing, God, tragedy, singing, love, a revolution, & even more singing. The cinematography, the score, and set design are incredible. I know Daniel Day Lewis will win best actor for Lincoln but I believe Hugh Jackman deserves it even more as I found the latter's performance to be moving. Anne Hathaway delivers a powerful performance & the best of her career but, I'm not so sure she wasn't out done by Samantha Barks, also in a supporting role. Russel Crowe, while not a great singer compared to the others, is awesome as a villain. Sacha Baron Cohen (Borat) is the comic relief & is very funny. Now this movie is not for everyone & is very long but, those who are still interested will love it.
4.5/5
