2 Liked it!   Review by: hanny, Dec 27, 2007
Chicago was a great show! I really liked it, thought the plot is a bit complicated. In some parts you really have tto pay attention. The set was simple and dark, the dancers were good. Overall I say go see it!

3 Who needs the movie - Chicago the musical was great and stood up on its own!   Review by: razzadazzle, Sep 13, 2006
I see that the previous reviewers compared the show to the movie. Maybe that's the problem with movie versions of shows they take some of the magic away.
I personally have never seen the movie, so here is my slightly more objective opinion:

4 disappointing- just watch the movie   Review by: Matt, Aug 29, 2006
Let me first say that I saw the movie before the show. On that note, despite the wonderful music and story, this production was lackluster. There is pretty much NO set, and the costumes are plain and stingy. Also, the orchestra is on stage, which takes away from the action. While the singing, acting, and dancing was technically good, it lacked energy. It is the only case where I can honestly say I prefer the film over the show.

5 Nothing like seeing a live performance as opposed to the movie   Review by: , Aug 29, 2006
This play was awesome! I saw the movie first but there's nothing like a live performance! I find it much less intriguing to watch a musical on DVD. We went to see this musical in NYV with friends (4 couples altogether) and we all loved it! The music/singing is outstanding!
