Reviews: "[PHANTOM] is a rapturous spectacle. And the movie, directed full throttle by Joel Schumacher, goes the show one better....It smolders." (Rolling Stone, 12/30/2004, p.171, Peter Travers), "The look is dazzling....Scotsman Gerard Butler does a fine job as the charismatic, ghostly character who hides away in the opera house because of his disfigurement." (USA Today, 12/22/2004, p.1D, Claudia Puig), "[T]he lavish production captivates the senses, and the musical and emotional crescendos are overpowering." (Movieline's Hollywood Life, 12/01/2004, p.103, Andre Chautard), "The beloved musical by Andrew Lloyd Webber and Richard Stilgoe sees a lush screen adaptation starring Emmy Rossum as Christine....Costume textures and fine details are amazingly rendered..." (Widescreen Review, 06/01/2006, p.61, Widescreen Review Staff) |
