Free Music Review: Good
Hit: 4 Stars
Richard Gere surprised me on this one as did Catherine Zeta-Jones but the real standout performance is Queen Latifah with "When You're Good To Mama". She belts it out with great gusto and proves that rappers don't always have to sound like crap. She should do more musicals. It took a little adjusting from what he's done recently but John C. Reilly can really sing. The only one who can't sing is Zellwegger. Her voice annoys me whenever she sings and I cringe. It's like nails on a chalkboard bad. But 95% of the cast isn't bad. The orchestrations were excellent, especially when you crank it up. If it weren't for Zellwegger, this would be getting five stars.
Chicago Poster
The movie version of Kander and Ebb's Chicago was long in the making, but it's well worth the wait. Director Rob Marshall's main change was to turn the classic musical numbers into fantasy sequences, but of course this isn't obvious on CD. Most importantly, the arrangements are bursting with life while being true to the show's spirit, and the casting is simply inspired. Catherine Zeta-Jones actually started her career on the British boards (she was in The Pajama Game and 42nd Street), so her turn as slinky Velma Kelly isn't that surprising; Ren?e Zellweger as Roxie Hart is more of a leftfield choice, but she shows she can handle the singing demands with pizzazz. The real revelation may well be rapper Queen Latifah, who belts out "When You're Good to Mama" with a marvelous affinity for the material. OK, so the R&B reprise of "Cell Block Tango/He Had It Coming" by Queen Latifah, Macy Gray, and Lil' Kim fails to convince, while Anastacia's "Love Is a Crime" is just blah (rest easy, purists, it's over the end credits). On the other hand, the CD provides two bonuses: "Class," which was cut from the movie, and "I Move On," a great duet written by Kander and Ebb for the final cut. It's really easy to mess up film adaptations of Broadway shows. Happily, Chicago proves it can be done right. --Elisabeth VincentelliBroadway & Vocalists Music CDs
