Great performances, not sure about Russell Crowe's singing though! Can't compare to the musical, all in all a great production 8/10.

Hugely enjoyed it yesterday, I don't think Crowe's singing lets it down.

Just back from seeing this today with my last Vue voucher. Thoroughly enjoyed it and it was just as good as the musical which I saw a few years ago. Russell Crowe played the part well but his singing let him down. 8/10

My wife has refused to see this as she's seen the show a few times and says it's (forgive the pun) miserable

If she didn't like it why did she p*y to go and see the show "a few times". :confused:

I'm having a 2nd viewing of Les Mis tomorrow night. I saw the stage show at least 10 times and love the music. I will b*y the dvd when it comes out but definitely prefer seeing films on the BIG screen. Going to Showcase cinema with friends on Tuesday using Insider cards and as carer for CEA card holder . . . so I go free! :D

Finally got to see Les Mis. Ann Hathway was amazing and deserves all the positive reviews. Also thought Samantha Barks was very good. Russell Crowe was badly miscast and was the weak link. Enjoyed it very much.

She was taken by her parents when younger. I assume they had no babysitter handy
