2024 will be epic for the iconic film Les Miserables. A remastered version will be released globally to movie theaters. And the stage musical version is coming to the Mirvish Theatre!

I watched this at theatre, this is just my opinion, awful singing. Find the 10th anniversary video, great singers and its all on a stage.

Fairly enjoyable, doesn't depart too much from the book. Russell Crowe very good as Javert.

I have seen this in the theatre, but wanted to watch it again.

Good acting and some Great names attached. Unfortunately the singing for me just comes off as goofy and I can't take it seriously. Couldn't get through the film.

Judging this film critically, there are some high notes and low notes. Things to be praised include Anne Hathaway's stellar performance, the elaborate costume and set design, as well as many emotionally gripping scenes and some genuine…

Russell Crowe can sing well. There, I said it. The thing is: he's been a new wave performer doing rock music. That. Is. Not. Like. Broadway. At. All. One can say the same thing about a few other entertainers in this film adaptation of…

Some of these comments appear to be for a different item. This is the Staged Concert in London starring Alfie Boe as Jean Val Jean, Michael Ball as Javert and Nick Jonas as Marius, i.e., a filming of a stage production, not the movie. …

Absolutely horrific. Awful singing. Awful lyrics. Looks more like a really bad sunday school musical.

A musical film, it succeeds at portraying this story in a powerful and moving way.

Although Hugh Jackman performed well, the movie slogged on and didn't hold my interest. Better to watch the 1935 non-singing version with Fredric March and Charles Laughton. The library's DVD of that movie also includes the 1952 version…

Hugh Jackman won the Oscar for his role in this movie proving he is far more than a comic book kind of guy.

Boring! Saw it on Broadway ... more impressive with more talented singing. Hate these movies where they place actors/actresses with no singing talent! Didn't bother to finish towards the end.

Horrifically awful bombast totally devoid of nuance that features several acclaimed actors phoning it in. The only one who did well was Anne Hathaway, and she barely has any screen time. Russell Crowe's singing is an honor to his surname -…

I once performed in Les Miserables, as part of a school play that was so good it made the front page on the Hamilton Spectator, and I really loved playing it. That fact set the bar pretty high for this movie. And surprisingly enough, it…

WAY WAY BETTER THAN LA LA LAND!!! Could have used some more work in smaller/transitional scenes, certain shots are ad hoc and show the people's zits rather than convey tight quarters. Memorable musical numbers, even Russel Crowe gets a…

I really enjoyed this movie, mmadair it's called a musical so if you don't like musicals don't watch musicals.

They sing the WHOLE time?? Hugh Jackman didn't have any normal dialogue! And how was Russell Crowe EVERYWHERE?!

Too long.

This movie has all the elements of a great movie, but alas, has missed the mark due to the miscasting of Hugh Jackman and Russell Crow. Both are amazing actors but this role calls for singing, and neither of them are up for it. Jackman…

I saw this in a theater with my family when my singing daughter was 13. She had no idea what she was getting into and her back never touched the seat for the entire movie. She was lifted magically into that world. Years later she…

I fell in love with Eddie Redmayne. He is by far the best Marius ever!!! His voice is so dreamy and you feel the emotions that Mr. Pontemercy would be feeling! Truly incredible performance!!!!!!

Alain Boubil and Claude-Michel Schönberg's epic, sprawling (and quite sad) musical Les Miserables is adapted into this 2012 feature film. Telling the story of Jean Valjean, a man on the run from the local inspector Javert in early 19th…
