      Tim Brayton Antagony & Ecstasy It is not much of a good movie... What strength it has comes largely from the strength inherent to the material. Rated: 6/10 Jan 20, 2013 Full Review Read all reviews

      Audience Member Left out a few of my favorite aspects. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/24/23 Full Review Audience Member yet another version of tired (2 me) story. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 01/21/23 Full Review Audience Member Most suitable for high school viewing than any other version out there, which isn't a bad thing, this sort of accessibility to the classics can be a great thing for sparking an interest in the originals. A great little cast too. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/06/23 Full Review Audience Member You can't go wrong watching a black and white movie of a story that is dear to your heart. Well it is dear to my heart. The Muscial on broadway is my all-time favorite. So maybe it's why i so do enjoy this version of the movie. Awsome acting that is for sure! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/21/23 Full Review Audience Member This is by far my favourite Les Miserables out of every single one that has ever been made. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/22/23 Full Review Read all reviews Post a rating
