Quite boring as a musical. The way it is represented is way too modern, and the songs seem often out of place, with recitatives a bit too long that break the pace.

Like oral sex, it goes pretty well until someone starts singing.

I did enjoy much of the film, especially the performances by the two leads, but musicals always pull me out of the movie and remind me I'm in a theater and not the film.

What's more, I detest the bullshit idea that making yourself suffer and making people you love suffer is somehow noble. Once upon a time, I let fear keep my from perhaps my greatest adventure, but that doesn't make me a hero -- it makes me a sad little asshole.

Bit of a slog. Doesn't know if it wants to update it or keep in the period. Music was only okay but the performances were good along with the sets and costumes. They barely mention Cyrano's height, unlike the other versions discussion of his nose throughout, which makes it a curiosity to me. It wants to address his lack of confidence in his appearance while trying to **not notice it**. This is what a classic looks like, I guess, after having it's teeth pulled. Go watch **ROXANNE** if you'd like to see an updated take on the story that keeps the theme a little more in the forefront.

Peter act well (although with singing was a little worse), the rest, unfortunately, quite sadly tiring.

Thoroughly enjoyable, there was some exquisite camera work and set pieces here. The location was great and they really used it to it's advantage when framing a number of shots. I especially loved the reflection work here done in camera during the opening sequences in the carriage. The film touched me, I was moved by it. Not being familiar with the stage play or the older French movie this has made me aware of it and I will look to see this on stage when I can. Dinklage was great and really shows he's capable of such a wide range of acting skills.

I was verrry excited for this movie because I have absolutely loved all the other adaptations of Cyrano de Bergerac that I have watched, but in the end, this one was a complete bust for me. Something about it just felt… wrong. I am not sure if the acting was bad (Peter Dinklage did manage to shine despite others failing), or the music was too bland… I am not sure. In the end, this is not a movie I would rave about to my friends. Instead, I WILL rave about Roxanne (1987) and Cyrano de Bergerac (1990), which are both absolute masterpieces!!

The story is familiar but this is still a pretty good movie, largely because of the acting, directing, and better-than average musical numbers that make it worth watching.

An adaptation that tries to offer a broader perspective, moving away from the idea of the "handsome fool and the ugly intelligent", but whose horizon seems smaller. Mediocre songs don't help, even if they fit well with Peter Dinklage's low register. It's in the musical field that this musical stumbles, and in the inability to find the essence of the message beyond the physical characteristics of the characters.

I thought it was a very touching story. As an introvert who couldn't hold a conversation if my life depended on it, I related to Christian :(
