Free Music Notes for Disney Presents The Music Man (2003 TV Film)
Free Music Review: Was In The Show
Hit: 4 Stars
I was in a version of this show as a chorus the same year this came out, so I had to buy it! I also saw it on t.v., loved it, and love this, you wont be disapointed!Free Music Review: Kristin Chenoweth was the redeeming quality
Hit: 3 Stars
Kristin Chenoweth was the redeeming quality of this adaptation. She actually made it worth watching. Now I'll grant Matthew Broderick this: NO ONE could ever be Harold Hill the way Robert Preston was Harold Hill. And Robert Preston WAS Harold Hill. Very disappointing too, I thought if anyone could do it, Matthew could. He was flat, lifeless, altogether boring, and did not begin to do the character justice. It's just too bad. The rest of the cast was okay. Molly Shannon was as delightful as could be as Mrs. Shin, although not the original by any means. And that's OK.
Having never liked Shirley Jones or her nails-on-a-chalkboard voice, my husband and I decided that if you could splice Kristin Chenoweth into the original movie, you would have a completely perfect, wonderful work of timeless art. Again, she makes it worth the watch. I don't know that I'd buy it though, stick with the original.
Free Music Review: Chenoweth steals the show, makes soundtrack worth buying
Hit: 3 Stars
I became a fan of Kristin Chenoweth through her role as Galinda in the broadway musical WICKED. She possesses immense vocal control and an impressive range. I felt that this Disney version of the Music Man certainly showcases Chenoweth's talent; she does an outstanding job in her role as Marian. However, Disney could have done a better job casting the lead role of Professor Harold Hill. Matthew Broderick's performance seems lackluster, especially in comparison to Chenoweth's. Despite Broderick's unimpressive performance, the movie's choreography and costumes are wonderful, and Chenoweth's performance alone justifies this purchase.Free Music Review: disappointing
Hit: 3 Stars
I am a big fan of both Broderick and Chenoweth, but the movie and the soundtrack do not work for me because Matthew is the wrong person to play Harold Hill. He just does not come across as the loveable rogue. I also agree with the reviewer who commented that there was not enough emotion. With regard to this album, the music is "rushed" -- if you listen, it appears the movie or music director is forcing the pace, perhaps because of the time constraints of television.Free Music Review: chenoweth oldest marion on record
Hit: 3 Stars
i must take exception to the comments of chenoweth and broderick being too young for their roles. Barbara cook was 31 on broadway and shirley jones 28 when she made the film . Kristin was the ripe old age of 35.. so not having life experiences seems invalid. robert preston 38 broadway, 42 film ...broderick 41 not a huge difference. anyway kristi sounded lovely as always matthew a different approach but let the age thing go...
