Did anyone else despise BILLY ELLIOT? — Page 3

"The songs are unmemorable, there are a lot of cheap laughs and they are unclear on the tone."

I think the jarring lack of conviction in tone is a major problem that's been largely overlooked -- the dumb, forced humor totally undercut attempts at poignance and drama. I, for one, couldn't at all be moved or convinced by "Deep Into the Ground" due to the lame, broad jokes that came before and after it.

I did not like this show but I think 'despise' is too strong a word to describe it for me.

The score and book are TERRIBLE.

the only decent thing is the cast. and that's pushing it.
