Reviews

As someone who has been burned by every single Hollywood adaptation of Les Miserables , let me categorically state that this time it was done right! Everything from the acting to the music to the sets was borderline perfect. The only thing that could possibly be considered a negative was something that was absolutely unavoidable. That is , when you are taking a novel as voluminous as Les Miserables and condensing it into a feature length movie , some things will be cut or rushed. This is no exception. The movie moves at breakneck speed. Anyone who is fond of the Broadway musical will no doubt not be bothered by it , but people new to the story or those who have only read the novel might be put off by it.
