Burlesque

Certificate: 12A
Running Time: 119 minutes
Director: Steve Antin


A musical explosion about a small town girl chasing her dreams in the big city. Starring the legends that are Cher and Christina Aguilera, the story unfolds around a struggling burlesque lounge in L.A. With plenty of singing, dancing and drama, the star studded movie was at best a pleasant watch. There was nothing outrightly bad about it, but it just seemed a bit too much like Mean Girls meets Moulin Rouge. The songs were fun and carried off well, the acting good and the production overall a fairly good standard, but not amazing original or creative and a little too cliche.
