Really?
Just got back from watching this with my partner and first of all only me and him and 2 other people were in the whole cinema (oh dear). The film has some fun moments in but it is also way to long, over crammed with music, has no story, huge plot holes and manages to suck the life out of many of the songs (though some were brilliantly done). Alec Baldwin was wasted in this role and had nothing to do other than his rather predictable moment with Brand. Mary J looked like she missed the memo on what kind of film she was in and also had nothing to do. Juliana was great at acting the role and her dance was strong, she has a sweet voice but there is nothing rock about it at all.
Zeta Jones was great in her 2 big numbers and i thought Cruise did well (best moment in the film was his and the Rolling Stone reporter's duet). Russell Brand is trying to do a Birmingham accent and as a Brit i could not stop laughing at how awful it is.
It was shot pretty well and did have some really good moments and a few funny moments, but all in all it was a huge let down. I see why this has divided critics and had more of them leaning towards negative.
Namo i love u but we get it already....you don't like Madonna
