Chicago ********--
Kristin Schrock   Theatre   11 January 2003

I am not a big fan of the musical. But this one was fun with good dance numbers, and much better than Moulin Rouge. I kept waiting for the tap number which did not disappoint--even without jazz hands. And, Richard Gere, can belt it out.

Chicago ********--
A Bennett   AMC Newport on the Levee   11 January 2003

This film was *everything* Moulin Rouge both should have been and wanted to be. I found myself grinning from ear to ear, and wanting to applaud after each number. Also (and I never would have in my life thought I would _ever_ say this), Richard Gere deserves a major award.

Chicago *****-----
Steve Gadd   Reston Town Center   24 January 2003

It's definitely a musical, but more watchable than that sensation from last year, even with Richard Gere.

Chicago *****-----
Tony Pisarenkov   Harkins Arizona Mills   21 April 2003

Mildly Entertaining. But Oscar material?!?!

Chicago (Second Viewing) *********-
A Bennett   AMC 20 Newport-on-the-Levee   10 February 2003

How a film about a miscarriage of the judicial system can both make you revel in it, and, in tandem, disgust you by it, is nothing short of cinematic genius--particularly keeping in mind that the film is 90% song and dance. Again, Richard Gere, please come up to accept your MAJOR AWARD. **If you have the chance to see this film before it leaves the theatre, I urge you to do so. I do not doubt it will play well on TV, only, it's a big-theatre show, and it deserves to be experienced that way.
