re: Why RENT is the bane of my existence

I've never seen the show on stage and I still would like to, to get the full experience...
I didn't cry at all in the movie, perhaps having seen the show and knowing the music beforehand is what attached people to the characters, because I felt nothing for them...
And maybe because I wasn't really coherent when AIDS and homosexuality were a big deal(I'm 19, and as long as I can remember they've been everyday things) I think that it's hard to see the lives of the characters as interesting

hah...my username is i hate rent just because that's what was going through my mind when I signed up..everyone around me is raving about it, and I know a lot of people who have loved the original all along...and it is bothering me so much that I hate it! I just want to hear something besides "because it's amazing" I want people to write WHAT exactly is amazing about it, so that I can try to appreciate it.

There is no character development.
There is no tension in the plot.
There are very few memorable moments in the music.

Please show me how I am wrong..I was dying to love Rent, but I squirmed in boredom and agony through the entire film.

Point out all the genius and beauty that someone flew over my head, please.
