Review of The Phantom of the Opera

I remember seeing posters for this movie; part of me wanting to watch it because it looked beautiful and very interesting, but the other part was skeptical and unsure because of the "Opera" part. When I thought of opera, the image of that fat, screaming, viking lady popped into my mind. My friend kept telling me about how it was the absolute best movie ever and how I should see it. Again, that stereotype opera image came to my mind, but I finally decided to trust my friend and watch it anyways.

Well, she was right! I've never seen a movie like this one- so beautiful, enchanting, magical, mystifying, intriguing, and musically divine. There are not any words to actually describe how much I love it. It has anything a good movie could ever have: a majestic and haunted building, a mysterious and misunderstood man, an obsessive love, a tragic love triangle, an angel-like singer, a father's promise, deaths, excitement, mystery, unconditional romance, beautiful music, and more. What else could you ask for?

This is my favorite movie, no doubt about it. If you want to find out why it's that good, see it. Don't let that viking lady convince you not to see it, that's not opera. Don't let her be inside your mind; instead, let the Phantom of the Opera be there, inside your mind.
