Corpse Bride; Artistry is unmistakably fantastic & beautiful but something about the script, characters & songs are regrettably unremarkable & easily forgettable. Very hard to get into & stay invested in. Never really establishes a reason to root for anyone or connect w/them; C+
The Prom; Technicolour transfer of stage musical seems hand picked for Murphy’s Glee pedigree. A-list cast + musical veterans excel and revel in their roles, while pushing the focus of the film’s LGBTQ2 couple off screen to a degree. Still, loads of fun numbers for everyone; B+
