Chicago

A superb musical? Why, yes! I had a grin on my face the whole time. The premise is dopey, in that all these women killed their lovers because they...for God's sake...popped their gum, but the musical numbers are so much dang fun that it doesn't matter. Everyone's good -- Richard Gere, Catherine Zeta-Jones (she and Nicole Kidman vie for the most porcelain beauty in Hollywood award), Queen Latifah, but Renée Zellweger is stunning. She seems able to do anything. Why, she even gives us stand-up comedy in the middle of one of her numbers.
