The Greatest Showman [SteelBook] [Includes Digital Copy] [Blu-ray/DVD] [Only @ Best Buy] [2017]

I really enjoyed this movie and the 4K transfer looks fantastic! The songs are catchy and has a really great story.

A good movie, not great, but if you like musicals it is entertaining and Hugh Jackman does a really good job in his lead role. The movie also has a good message about acceptance.

Pros: Movie is worth watching & won’t regret it. Great message, soundtrack & story. Slipcover. Cons: 4k picture/disc not worthy as some & that’s coming from someone having a calibrated OLED, high end cables & Oppo player! Weak Atmos level & surround. No height effect on my ceiling speakers from a calibrated 11.2 (7.2.4) setup. When I pop in other movies in, it come to live!

The movie is a little bit to long for the story plot but overall it’s a good musical film.

Our family went to watch this movie on Christmas Eve. We hate musicals, and I hadn't seen any previews, so I had no idea what I was getting the family into. Imagine my surprise when the previews ended and Hugh Jackman sang, "Ladies and Gents this is the moment you've waited for." I cringed, and looked over at my husband. He gave me the, "You've gotta be kidding me! We paid $40 to see A STUPID MUSICAL!" look. I shrugged, and mouthed SORRY. We only pony up the money to see movies in theaters, maybe three times a year. If that. Frankly I was mad that we just wasted a ticket. I sat back, and made up my mind to hate it. But truth be told, I didn't. I liked it. We all liked, but didn't want to admit it out loud to each other. We walked out and all agreed it was better than we thought it would be. Then a funny thing happened. We all kept singing the songs. So... we bought the album. After listening to the songs over and over, we all agreed we needed to go see it again. We loved it, and all agreed it was an awesome movie. It became an addiction! We kept listening, and the more we listened, the more we loved it. We tried to resist paying to see it again... how silly would that be? After waiting two weeks, we went to see it AGAIN. Now we all agree, BEST MOVIE OF ALLLLLL TIME. Ever. Hands down, our new favorite. It's February 5th and I've already bought a digital copy on Amazon. Give it a chance! Even if you're like us, and hate musicals!

This story is eloquently constructed, tho some names are the same, this is a loosely based story of Barmums life. and it is magnificent, Wonderful, magical, and inspiring. This musical is mesmerizing, it connects to the viewers that can cast aside, it as, a documentary of barnum's actual life. There is tenacity and love, a few love stories at once, there is Songs that can be felt and bring personal emotion to the surface, there is whimsy and, oh yes, there is love. Somethings, stay the same, some things change, but no matter how you view it, The songs are impressive, well constructed and hit their mark, the scenes are from the further reaches of the imagination. It is so lovely and amazing that you will get caught up in the heart, or the story, and be cheering for everyone. I personally love the songs bought the soundtrack. twice, And see this as an iconic journey in finding oneself. but not just for 1 man, but for many, In the Same contrast as Moulin Rouge, Chicago, Best little wH0Re house in texas, Rent, and other musicals, This takes the cake in being perfectly directed, hitting marks and Making it all come to life. Five stars, this movie was a staple, of my 3k movie collection. Just amazing.

I hate musicals. I mean, absolutely cannot stand them. Would almost rather take a beating than sit through one. Just being honest. BUT, I love this movie so much. I have watched it multiple times and I never get tired of the songs, the storyline, the amazing characters and the actors that portray them, etc. My daughter and I sing along to the songs, which are all fantastic. Hugh Jackman is impeccable as the creative dreamer he portrays. I'm not a fan of Michelle Williams but have to give credit where it is due and she is wonderful in this as well. Zac Efron and Zendaya are also fantastic. If you're on the fence about buying this, I guarantee you won't be sorry if you do.

The 4K presentation of this film is excellent. I actually have this on blu-ray but once I purchased a 4K television this title was on my list to upgrade to 4K and I'm so glad I did. Hugh Jackman does wonders in this role and the supporting roles, the music and the storyline are all top notch.
