As a musical theater purist, I was concerned that a movie musical with 3 of Hollywoods A list stars would be a hinderance rather than a aid in the “revival” of the genre. I must say that I was blown away by the sheer genius and excellence of the film.
Catherine Zeta-Jones’ Velma was equal to, if not better than Bebe Neuwerth’s ( Brodway revival) . Her heavenly content and masterful dance skill is fine of the big white contrivance. A Tony may have been a more appropriate award as opposed to her distinguished deserved Oscar. Although Rene Zellwegers content was a cramped shaky in the begining she brought out a tough side in Roxy that was not there in neither the new nor the revival stage versions. Then my biggest panic, Richard Gere as Billy Flinn, was in a word perfect. You can’t ask for a better fit, and what a shocker to view that amazing tapdance!

With spacious costumes,Fosse-like choreography, expert lighting and singing (by many broadway veterans in the chours as extras) this dismal comedy shines. Also with expansive cameos and supporting performances by the gigantic Chita Rivera ( current broadway cast),John C. Reily (oscar nominated),Lucy Liu, and Christine Baranski this film shines as one of the greatest ever made, not unprejudiced as a musical, but as a film. Acquire Marshall’s directorial debut deserves all of it’s accolades…and all that jazz.
It is the 1920s in Chicago and we enter this musical film through a saucy nightclub to discover Velma Kelly (Catherine Zeta-Jones) performing a duo act of All that Jazz on her gain. Only later is it revealed what happened to her sister who was supposed to be the second half of the act. Next we meet Roxie Hart (Renée Zellweger) who is a naive girl with mountainous dreams of stardom who goes to the slammer for killing her lover. From the moment she enters and we scrutinize a brief flash of her imagining herself on stage, we are aware that this film is half reality and half Roxie’s dream. Ambitious Roxie has to regain a intention to derive herself out of prison and onto the stage. To do this she creates an innocent persona that is designed by her still talking lawyer Billy Flynn (Richard Gere) for the media to bring the public to her encourage. With his abet and the sassy matron of the women’s prison ‘Mama’ Morton (Queen Larifah) Roxie eclipses Velma Kelly’s prison girl fame. Her matronly values and repentant attitude have the public enthralled and the jury in tears. But with her newfound celebrity Roxie’s head is sent spinning again with plans of musical fame. However, it becomes increasingly distinct that her popularity will be dreadfully short lived if she doesn`t craft a design to remain in the spotlight. Teetering on the brink of superstar celebrity and death row, Roxie will have to give the performance of her life if she wants to set her neck. Filled with beautifully choreographed catchy musical numbers and a blooming sweep of swiftly dramatic action, there is never a listless moment in this film. It’s a triumphantly palatable thing to observe.
The greatest reason for this film’s success is due to the comely ensemble of actors many of whom (with the exception of Queen Larifah) we aren’t familiar with hearing squawk. The cast all excel in both in their musical numbers and acting performances. Catherine Zeta-Jones looks pretty and is fun in her catty diva role. Renée Zellweger is perfect for her fragment of the innocent, but calm clear and quietly vicious, Roxie who will conclude at nothing to become a star. Like in the striking film Nurse Betty, Zellweger’s character again confuses reality with her dreams and her subtle facial shifts and movement meaningfully recount her psychological conflict. Most surprisingly, Richard Gere delivers a astounding performance as the slimy lawyer proving that this actor can really do comedy well. Then there are important performances in minor roles that leave an impact such as Queen Latifah`s sultry money-hungry matron, Christine Baranski as the hilarious news reporter Mary Sunshine, John C Reilly as Roxie’s neglected but unexcited loving husband Amos Hart and Lucy Liu as the vicious ball-busting heiress Kitty.

Those familiar with the well-known stage display of Chicago will not be disappointed because this film maintains its focus on the musical and dance numbers as the centerpiece. In fact, the meaning of Roxie’s psychological confusion between reality and fantasy is wonderfully accentuated by the film’s ability to swiftly slit between the drab, harsh reality and the glamorous, jazzy corners of Roxie’s imagination. The director Occupy Marshall excellently filmed all the dance numbers to focus on particular moves as well as rob the elephantine action of the performances for the fullest achieve. This movie is a pretty example of how a musical film can succeed where its pertinent counterpart (as both films focus on a female on death row) Dancer in the Dim failed. The musical numbers all capture a famous role in both accentuating site detail and enjoyably engrossing the film along. Likewise, the anecdote does not grasp itself too seriously preferring to revel in the wonderful music and thrilling legend rather than focus on any specific fair meaning. That isn’t to say that this film isn’t emotionally inspiring. It excels in its ability to entertain you as well as map you into an moving tale of fame, glamour and death.
