Musical - Phantom of the Opera

One month ago I saw the 'Phantom of the Opera' on Stage in Brisbane Qld.Australia and it was fantastic.
Purchasing the 'Phantom' on DVD was the very best thing, if not better then the stage production. I can whole heartedly recommend this production. Inge Hartley

Nice film version of Andrew Lloyd Webber's version

If you are a fan of the musical based on the classic story of the Phantom of the Opera, then you will like this film. It adds only slightly to the play, but it is a nice addition to your collection if you are a fan of musicals or the Phantom of the Opera.

Great movie

I wore out my tape cassette of Phantom back in the 1980s, though I never got to see the actual musical on stage. It's nice to be able to have it on DVD so I can finally see the dialogue and sets while I hear the music. This is a very good production. Emmy Rossum has a beautiful voice and projects the sweetness, innocence and youth that the character should have. The rest of the cast does a fine job as well. Definitely worth the investment.

Better than Broadway

The director took pains to cast Christine and Andrew Lloyd took the time and money to make this production definitive. This DVD melds the exquisite music with an improved and expanded script to make it completely satisfying. You will love this DVD.

Book, Film, THEN Stage

2008-06-20
I am a huge fan of the original novel Phantom of the Opera. When this film came out, I had not bothered to see the stage production, because I generally don't care for productions that are based on books.

Anyway, I ADORED this film. I thought it was a wonderful adaptation of the book. The actors, the sets, the costumes, and the music were all very appropriate and entertaining. I have the whole soundtrack on my iPod. That's how much I love it.

After seeing this film I saw the stage production and was highly disappointed. I wouldn't see that again for free.

I think it's unfortunate that so many theater purists are giving this film terrible reviews. I'm willing to bet most of them haven't read the original French novel.

The Phantom of the Opera, from Andrew Lloyd Webber.
You need to go to Majestic musical theater, see the Broadway show first, and only then watch a DVD. You'll remember my recommendations when you revers the order.
Thank you,

Powerful!

I love the story of the Phantom of the Opera, and have seen it live three times. However, the movie is just as powerful, if not more so, than the theater because the movie gives you more story line and is easier to understand. This is one that will stay with you!
