The Burlesque Lounge has its best days behind it. Tess, a retired dancer and owner of the venue, struggles to keep the aging theater alive, facing all kinds of financial and artistic challenges. With the Lounge's troupe members becoming increasingly distracted by personal problems and a threat coming from a wealthy businessman's quest to buy the spot from Tess, the good fortune seems to have abandoned the club altogether. Meanwhile, the life of Ali, a small-town girl from Iowa, is about to change dramatically. Hired by Tess as a waitress at the Lounge, Ali escapes a hollow past and quickly falls in love with the art of burlesque. Backed by newfound friends amongst the theater's crew, she manages to fulfill her dreams of being on stage herself. Things take a dramatic turn though when Ali's big voice makes her become the main attraction of the revue.

Movie Reviews

San Francisco Chronicle - 10/10 by Mick LaSalleIt's big, perfectly cast and entertaining in every way, but more than that it feels like a generous public event.
Boxoffice Magazine - 10/10 by Sara Maria VizcarrondoThis rags-to-sequins tale may be schmaltzy in its sincerity, but 'tis the season. Glitter is optional, but certainly encouraged.
ReelTalk Movie Reviews - 9/10 by Betty Jo TuckerAn entertaining showcase for Christina Aguilera's amazing vocal talent. Plus glitzy showgirl routines liven things up with sexy, amusing, energetic fun.
EmanuelLevy.Com - 9/10 by Emanuel LevyCher has the look and Aguilera has the voice in Burlesque, Antin's deliberately cliche and intentionally gay campy musical, a guilty pleasure par excellence.
Cleveland Plain Dealer - 9/10 by Clint O'ConnorYou know how movie stars lie and say they never see their own films? The hilariously bad Burlesque would be a great opportunity to actually follow through on that.
New York Press - 9/10 by Armond WhiteShowcasing Aguilera's attempt to sound like a 50-year-old black woman in the guise of white appropriation, Burlesque sells a myth about show business that is both unwelcome and shopworn.
ColeSmithey.com - 9/10 by Cole Smithey"Burlesque" never approaches the naughty complexity of "Cabaret" or the precision of "Chicago." For director/screenwriter Steve Antin to approach such musical high-stakes without his A-game on is unforgivable.
Philadelphia Weekly - 8/10 by Sean BurnsJust terrible enough to make you wish it was even worse.
NewsBlaze - 8/10 by Prairie MillerBugsby Berkeley with Botox. And if you're thinking pasties and poles when mulling about the movie and issues around truth in advertising, forget about it. This PG-13 contemporary rhinestone retro-romp is basically sexual innuendo with garments.
Cinemaclips.com - 8/10 by Roger TennisThis is all about the music and director/writer Steve Antin has fashioned a spectacle worthy of Broadway.
