brilliant actors, brilliant editing
Boring, long, and too preachy.
The film was still a fun one that will make you laugh and have you leaving the theater feeling like you just stole something valuable and got away with it.
View MoreGreat movie. Not sure what people expected but I found it highly entertaining.
View MoreOne of the best musicals ever. In fact, it is one of the best musicals of all time. It is incredible how the acting is incredible. Great performance, great music. Singin' in the Rain is one of the best musicals ever made.
View MoreWhen Movies or pictures as they called them they had no sound and then the movie the Jazz Singer was the first talkie movie to be brought into mainstream and when it came out there was a storm for all studios to jump onto to making talking movies and the plot of Singin' in the rain follows a production studio that is trying to swich over to talkie movies and have a tough time doing it and we follows a on screen couple Lina Lamont and Don Lockwood and off screen they are not a couple but when a beatiful voiced women played by Debbie Reynolds who will help bring life to talkies. The Cast is Gene Kelly as Don Lockwood,Donald O'Connor as Cosmo Brown, Debbie Reynolds as Kathy Selden,Jean Hagen as Lina Lamont,Millard Mitchell as R.F. Simpson and many more this cast are filled with energy and they bring fun and quirky energy to songs like singing in the rain and good morning and the broadway ballet there energy is amazing. love this movie so much the songs are unique and funky but also they are not basic for a musical and they are not afarid to have a musical number go on for a very long time the story is great the acting is great the music is great and this is one of the original musicals and it will always have that title this movie is just amazing
View MoreThis movie shows the story of the film industry as it transitions from the silent era to that of talking films and shows the fears and difficulties for those crafts people going through that process. The Singin' in the Rain sequence with Gene Kelly really is a bit of magic that never fails to delight. Most of the other musical numbers were also quite good. I also like the story as well. I will say that the acting does have that kind of one-dimensional cheerfulness so prevalent amongst movie musicals of this era, but despite that I still find this film quite enjoyable.
View MoreFirstly the dancing is terrific Kelly's show stopper singing the rain but cyd charisse does it for most of men in e audience ,it catapulted her into top stardom-Donald o Connor is great too -Debbie is Debbie that being said the plot is very uncomfortable-40 year old man chasing a teenager while dumping his co-star is Kelly at his misogynistic worst. hes played this i 'm so irresistible guy in most of his movies stealing his best friends girls etc- women as chattels- the victim this time is Jean Hagen -Lina Lamont dim and exploited ,then humiliated well great- when i was kid i felt sorry for lina-I still do- the final calumny the beautiful girls number- jimmy Thompson not being given a credit -asked many years later why not Thompson said that is Gene for you and shrugged
