Les Miserables one of the one to see movies at the cinemas. Question is , Is Les Mis Worth the hype? Well Yes and No, different parts of the film are almost iconic and some points in the film are kind of off putting and cringing for E.g Russell Crowe I'm not saying he is a terrible singer, but you can not wait for him to stop once he has started he makes a good villian to the piece but performance sort of underwhelming. But it knows where to pick it self up, in its own right this film adaption of Les Mis is unique its own way. Standout moment would have to be Anne Hathaways performance she is only on the film 20 minutes but she does it really well I dreamed a Dream is brilliant. Other Actors in the film that made an impact were Hugh Jackman the star of the show as Jean Valjean, and Samantha Bark who also was in the stage show of the film stunned with 'On My Own'. I'm not saying not to see it I can be repetive, stories can be rushed sometimes, and I don't know if It would work with proper dialogue or not because it is so diffently filmed to anything out there in movies today. But Still a great movie worth the awards it gets.
