I've loved musicals since my mom took me to see West Side Story as a kid (even though I hid my love for them as I was a death metal drummer back in the days). I loved the story, and the visuals, costume and camera work. But the music itself is to modern and to studio sounding for the time period it's supposed to represent. Moulin Rouge did it's own thing with making modern songs in it's own style that made the already epic songs even more timeless. But here it could be songs from any main stream crappy 6 months lifespan "artist" nowadays.

And I really hate that the (main) actors aren't doing their own dance scenes, as they aren't real dancers.
