Chicago had me mesmerised from the moment the film started right through until the end. Catherine dazzles, Renee shines and Richard impresses. Rob Marshall has directed a musical masterpiece that matches up to the stage spectacle that has captivated audiences worldwide. I found myself tapping along merrily to the wonderful catchy songs and by the second time I saw the film I was singing away to them as well. With a great supporting cast from the likes of Queen Latifah, John C Reilly, Lucy Lui & Taye Diggs, excellent songs and choregraphy Chicago has all the ingredients of a show-stopping extravaganza that will have you dancing in the aisles.
