Phantom the movie reminds me of what I did not like about Evita movie: there were way too many "off" moments where the song and/or underscore did not fit the images on screen. I like that they beefed up the orchestrations for the score, but the movie itself was lacking.
I've seen the stage production (West End & Bway), and I loved it, but there is definitely a sense of reality distortion involved in that kind of thing; a darkened movie theatre weaves a different kind of magic.
I wonder what's next... Sony Pictures presents "Miss Saigon" directed by Martin Scorsese?
