Wow. The Greatest Showman is one of those movies where the music completely carries the whole experience. The story itself is pretty thin (and very Hollywood in how it paints P.T. Barnum), but once the songs kick in, its hard not to get swept up. Hugh Jackman is so good at throwing himself into the role, and the ensemble numbers are pure spectacle.
Ill admit the historical accuracy isnt really there, but honestly, I didnt care much while watching because its all about the energy and feeling. This Is Me and From Now On gave me goosebumps, and the choreography is super tight.
Not a perfect movie, but as a feel-good musical with ridiculously catchy songs, it does exactly what it sets out to do.
