Okay, so if you watch Glee you get a lot of references to Barbra Streisand (who plays Fanny - the lead). And after watching this.. IT ALL MAKES SENSE. The nose, the songs.. EVERYTHING.
So, now, onto the review... Well, my version of a review. Funny Girl is funny, musical, serious and damn right brilliant. The songs, like 'My Man' and 'Don't Rain on My Parade,' are brilliant. Barbra has a bloody AMAZING voice. And that nose! AH. That is one damn fine nose. Barbra plays Fanny, a girl aspiring to be in theatre. She becomes on of the biggest stars through her amazing voice and her humor. She took musicals like Swan Lake and made them hilarious. The fashion in the film is... AMAZING. There are costumes like the following;
There were a few things that annoyed me a bit though. One was the predictability of some of the scenes. The other was that it was slightly confusing and seemed to leave out some characters - but that's my only criticism. I DEMAND YOU ALL WATCH IT. IT IS GOOD.
Now on a separate note, have any of you watched Firefly before? I watched the first episode yesterday.. And well, lets just say it's interesting.

I've seen all the episodes of Firefly-- it's pretty good! But I think it could have gotten much better later on if it hadn't been cancelled. :/
ReplyDeleteI LOVE FIREFLY! Okay well I've only seen half a dozen episodes, some friends and I are slowly working our way through them. But all the ones I've seen so far I absolutely loved! I wish sooo much it hadn't been cancelled!
