Sheer fucking torture. Atonal, poorly performed, lackluster direction, and a cast ten years too old for its roles. Who's New York was this?

A likeable musical about a bunch of dislikeable people. Boo, I'm too good to get a job!

Not as good as the broadway, and anyone who never heard of RENT before got really confused easily.

A mixed bag of highs and lows; it seemed like a direct transfer from stage to screen, and most of it felt forced. Ironically, the two new cast members (not part of the original 1996 Broadway cast) are the standouts.

A remarkably faithful adaptation of the stage show, with most of its virtues and flaws intact.

Having never seen the stage show I thought the movie did it's job and I just LOVE the music. If you've seen the stage show I hear you won't like the movie. Also if you don't like musicals this one won't change your mind.

Tbf most songs, apart from "Seasons of Love", are either bland or just plain bad.

Lacks the power and creativity of the stage version, but I give the director and cast credit for trying.

" The heart may freeze or it can burn. The pain will ease if I can learn... there is no future. There is no past. I live this moment as my last! There's only us... there's only this. Forget regret, or life is yours to miss. No other road... no other way. No day but today."

Amazing movie! The music was outstanding. Heartbreaking and full of passion. The movie played with my emotions with presicion and grace. Musically I still like Phantom better but the storyline and acting was far better. Impactful movie this.

Not the "awful adaptation" many would have you to belive, but clearly lacking the spark that made the stage show so great.

It's sad to see potential die, but for all of the fantastic moments this film has (the opening numbers, La Vie Boheme, and Roasrio Dawson's incredible booty), it has massive flaws tenfold (inacknowledgement of the music, the halt of any pacing at the "intermission" point, and the cutting of songs that relay pertinent character infromation).

An excellent adaptation from stage to film. The movie really seemed true to the original spirit and feeling of the Broadway Musical. Although the cast really doesn't look like they're anywhere near the 19 year-olds they should be playing, you suspend your disbelief to travel along the journey with them.
