Critics Consensus

A love-it-or-hate-it experience, Moulin Rouge is all style, all giddy, over-the-top spectacle. But it's also daring in its vision and wildly original.

Visually dazzling and certainly audacious in its directorial choices, there are definitely musicals of this style that have a lot more substance as well as flourish (Chicago, especially) but Baz Luhrmann is one his A-game by just presenting a dizzying experience and having the time of his life translating his ambitious ideas through visual and musical form.

Rated 4 out of 5 stars

Headache-inducing garbage of the highest order. I can't think of enough ways to express how much i hated this movie. Loud for the sake of being loud, edited for people with the attention span of a flea.

Crazy movie in many ways, but a spectacle for the eyes and ears - and my daughter's favorite musical.

It's a bauble, but an ingenious one, and it's also the work of a diehard romantic.

Sydney Morning Herald

Kidman and McGregor sparkle together; some songs enchant, a fine supporting cast give us some laughs, but it's not enough. There is nothing to savour, to reflect on. It's a film where style is in search of an idea.

Baz Luhrmann makes sure that everything that comes before the tragic ending is gleaming with beauty and lavishness.

El Nuevo Herald (Miami)

This movie is super strange and the only explanation to its strangeness is that it works in seven or eight different ways, some of them good and some of them bad. [Full review in Spanish]
