I am surprised at how much I *didn't* like this one. I often enjoy musicals, but some of them just have too high a corn quotient even for me

"The Music Man" is one of the greatest American musicals ever written. Even though it may look like a traditional musical. It really isn't. It broke many grounds in musical theater such as the use of darker themes, non rhythmic score, and a lead who is both a good guy and a bad guy.

Uninspired direction, and an earnest and obvious performance by Robert Preston. I think this has fewer good tunes than any other major musical.

So many musicals during the '60's...weird. Anywho, I first saw this in school and I was hooked. I do enjoy a good musical, every now and again.

Such a dirty movie... Doesn't quite take advantage of the formal elements of film (it's more of a filmed play), but the unique style of songs is enough to make me forgive that.

One of the few musicals I enjoy...and if you're a fan of the monorail episode of The Simpson's, you'll get a kick out of it.

Robert Preston makes for a charming Harold Hill, and the barbershop quartet is astoundingly good. Is that enough to carry the movie? Well... yes, yes, it is, but it's not enough to make it great.

Not my favorite musical story but I really like the songs. It's quite a dilemma to be in. I'll give it the nod into the "like" category since it helped inspire a great Simpsons episode.

I might be overrating this for sentimental reasons, but it's still one of the only classic musicals that never makes me feel it's length.

When I was a kid I tried out for the role of the kid. The musical director chose her son over me. I'm kind of glad I didn't do it, but that's still a jerk move on her behalf

Bright, bouncy but uninspiring musical. One big number (76 trombones) otherwise forgettable numbers. Ok story, good acting but it's certainly not Hello Dolly
