The Phantom of the Opera (2004)

The Phantom of the Opera is a sad story about a man in hiding from the cruel world because of his deformed face. He lives in the sewers under the Opera Populaire, but know everything that is going on in the opera. On day, while rehearing the star of the play Carlotta almost gets killed, by the Phantoms hand, and leaves the opera in fury. And whom if not the Phantoms beautiful and talented song student Christine gets the leading roll in the play. After the play Christine meets her child love Viscount Raoul De Chagny, without knowing about her tutors love for her she falls in love with Raoul. And the Phantom filled with jealousy of seeing his love in the arms of another man, kidnaps Christine and Raoul have to fight hard to get her back.

It´s a lovely but sad story, with beautiful costumes and songs. I haven´t seen the real musical but I would love to some day, I wouldn´t be suprized if it´s better than the movie. But I have to say I was very suprized when I got to know that Gerard Butler never took a singing class before doing the movie, impressive!
Grade: 4/5
