It's tough to fight the longstanding consensus that this is the greatest movie musical of all time, but what's often lost in the praise is that this also qualifies as a great comedy. Go to Full Review

Unbelievable the level of suffering that these people went through to create the most exuberantly joyful movie ever made. Go to Full Review

Eric J Jan 30 Delightful movie, made the old fashion way. No computer graphics, no explosions, no improbable stunts. Plenty of singing, dancing, and humor. Overall a very entertaining, upbeat movie. I dont think ive ever smiled so much over the course of a movie before. See more Pedro S @Salazar26ty 3h I dislike it because it is a musical. That is just my personal preference. But aside from that, I'm still confused why people call this film a classic and why they like it. See more Marta B 1d Singin' in the Rain provides an optimistic tone to a ever-evolving industry. The musical numbers are unforgettable and it is an essential film! See more Layne A. @poisontree Dec 5 Overrated all bc of nostalgia and the glorification of “classic” movies See more ella b Nov 17 My absolute favourite ever See more Deema d Nov 8 the movie is just.... timeless.
