Burlesque is it any good?

[CuriousMama]

I know it's a fairly old movie but I've heard a couple of people lately say they like it. One watches it all the time I'm tempted to rent it? Anyone seen it and what did you think?

the one with cher and christina aguleria?!
its AMAZING
up there with chicago for me :D
buy it, you wont regret it!

The singing is great, but the film itself is the most terrible drivel imaginable (sorry Bubbless).

Music and dancing is brill rest of it is a bit contrived Xtina has an amazing voice

Think I'll rent it then thanks.

Omg.

It is terrible.

But strangely compelling.

If you've ever watched a Christina aguilera video and thought "if only this was two hours long and had the plot of coyote ugly" then this is the film for you.

High points: Christina wandering into a burlesque club and going "what's burlesque?" seconds before Cher comes onstage to sing a number helpfully titled "welcome to burlesque"

Cher allegedly showing Christina how to apply make up even though she is already caked in it and looks like someone has coloured her face in beige.

Alan Cummings.

Low points: not enough Cher. You can never have too much Cher.

Enjoy!

Terrible film, weak plot etc

But I love it I even bought the soundtrack double

Brilliantly bad! Loved it

I did get quite distracted by Cher morphing into Pete Burns though

It's rubbish. It doesn't even have proper burlesque in it, just showgirl tunes with singers in stockings.

It's like Disney meets burlesque. Paper thin plot and awful acting.

Brilliantly bad then I'll love it

It's only 99p to rent so I think I can stretch to that? Just didn't want to drag myself to blockbuster if it wasn't worth it?

It is utter shite and I loved it so much I've watched it three times

So bad it's good. I loved it.

And Cam Gigandet is BEAUTIFUL

I do hope Cam is a man

Yes, very much so, and a bloody gorgeous man at that

off to Blockbuster

It is dreadful but so wonderfully dreadful I've watched it 4 times

Just googled Cam he's a baby!! I'm more into Gerard Butler types myself

Oh I am partial to a bit of Mr Butler (yes please!) but Cam in Burlesque... There's one part in particular I could watch over and over and over (whilst drooling) but then I am 23....

In fact, I just googled him and now I have to watch Burlesque again

Haha yes at 23 I may have fancied him I like them older now, easier to catch
