| 7M PicturesKevin CarrI'd only recommend it if you feel you'd like fluffy made-for-TV musicals. |
| Reel Film ReviewsDavid Nusair...ultimately overlong and forgettable, despite the best efforts of an exceedingly game cast. |
| User ReviewJ KWhat a cast and what a movie. Great musical. |
| User ReviewClover JThis movie is rediculously hilarious as it should be. All the cast is really good for their parts and the costumes were great. |
| User ReviewRachel SI saw this musical is SF. It was terrific! |
