Hey.they're supposed to know everything right? It seems that they are either watching a different movie or maybe they couldn't accept that Joel Schumacher, the I never watched the film version due to the Critics.for more than a decade. I never watched the film version due to the Critics.for more than a decade. The costumes and sets are creative and well made and some of the singing isn't bad, but it just wasn't a pleasant experience for me.
I don't even understand why she has that accent since everyone else is phoning it in and just doing a British accent, with the exception of Carlotta (since she is Italian) and Raoul and Christine, who for some reason speak with American accents. This is sad because I genuinly love Miranda Richardson and think she is a fantastic actress, but her acting in this movie was terrible. Then there is poor Miranda Richardson doing an incredibly over the top French accent that was hard not to laugh at. The only one who I thought did a decent job was Patrick Wilson as Raoul. It doesn't look that bad and it makes his song about his face seem, well, somewhat pretentious, which is a word that I feel sad using to describe one of my favorite literary anti-heroes. And even Erik in this film isn't that deep, especially when you see that his "deformity" is really just a big rash. None of these characters, especially Raoul and Christine, were very interesting to begin with. This is not the fault of Schumacher or any of the actors. With the exception of Erik, all of these characters are completely bland. It's certainly an improvement for Joel Schumacher since Batman and Robin, but I still did not enjoy this film.
