Comments: What can I say? I honestly had high hopes for this one. I mean, it’s not often that you get Jackman, Kidman and Luhrmann on the same set. Unfortunately the director forgot something, in order to make a great movie you can’t rely only on great visuals and no matter how good the actors are and how hard they try, you still need a decent plot and, most importantly, script… which was missing. Too bad… ‘cause this could have been great. And it wasn’t.

Rating: 8/10
