Review Les Miserables
21:09What's on your mind if I say "Les Miserables"? Maybe you will say french, musical drama, good show, boring and etc. Ok...
The movie is about ex-convict Valjean (Hugh Jackman) is set on the path of righteousness by the bishop, turning into a much beloved factory owner and mayor of a small town, where he crosses paths with Inspector Javert (Russel Crow), who knew Valjean as a prisoner and whose unyielding law and order attitude would seem to spell doom for the parole breaker, if he is discovered. Along comes desperate single mother and newly-minted prostitute Fantine (Anne Hathaway) to put the relationship between the two men on edge, while also giving Valjean a chance to prove his goodness. Valjean is outed and has to keep ahead of Javert while protecting the now-dead Fantine's daughter Cosette a she grows into womanhood, in the form of Amanda Seyfried. By this point, it's Paris, 1823, and Cosette falls in love with Marius, the leader of a group of student revolutionaries, who is himself being actively hunted by Javert, which throws the cop and Valjean back into each other's lives.
The one that got me interested in this movie is the line of the actors and actresses that have high quality as Hugh Jackman, Russell Crow, Anne Hathaway, Helena Bonham Carter and Sacha Baron Cohen (the last 2 names make the movie more entertaining with their acting).
Unlike other musical movies, "Les Miserables" is filled with conversation also sung, so throughout the movie there is no "normal" conversation. One more thing, if you love poetry, this movie is highly recommended because the words were so poetic.
It's an extremely powerful movie that evokes emotion. If you don't want to cry don't go. If you go and don't cry you have no heart. If you want to be amazed by the power of a movie spend two and a half hours with this outstanding cinematic achievement.
