'Rent' Movie Review (Unmarked Spoilers)

Sorry, I provided the only four possible answers (though I think Ponine meant "Option E" not "Option D") and the first one is wrong.

I really like the theatricality of the music for Rent, and was completely in love with it after I saw it the first time, but then I saw it a second time and realized that the story was crap. That is why I'm unsure about the movie. I'd see it again on stage in a heartbeat but the emotion of live performance won't carry a weak story on a screen like it does on a stage.

But I really want to see Jesse L. Martin sing if for no other reason than to make watching Law & Order more interesting.
