4.0 out of 5 stars The Nightmare of dance, 11 Nov 2003
By A Customer
This review is from: A Chorus Line [1985] [VHS] (VHS Tape)
The nightmare of dance is its speed and timing. The chorus line is a fantastic example of proffesionalism at its best and gives you great understanding of the gruelling tasks set upon old and younge dancers in this very distinguishable era. I have many times done the opening dance "I hope i get it" and the difficulty level is phenomenal. Standing ovation!! Brilliant!!

4.0 out of 5 stars A MASTER PIECE!!, 20 Jul 2004
By Fini McWini (Grayshott, Surrey United Kingdom) - See all my reviews
I was really quite surprised to read some of the condescending reviews about this Master Piece! Purhaps, having not seen the stage show, I do not miss the 'better sequences' that have been cut. However, watching this movie time and time again, I never bore of its electric cast that shine with such presence throughout. I can totally believe how this film has been responsible for peoples careers..as a performer I was hugely tempted on first seeing this film, to become a dancer. It is so dynamically full of life and influencial in that way... All the 'chorus line' show great potential, though you can easily distinguish between who will 'get it' at the end and who will not. 'Surprise Surprise' a classic, so full of spark and even sexual tension!!! 'I can do that' and 'The one' obviously stand out to me, but 'Nothing' is performed with great pinazz too... The one star lost because I felt it focussed too much on Cassies relationship with Zak. Overall however, a very striking and memorable production. I would highly recommend to anyone considering the stage....

4.0 out of 5 stars Well worth watching, 13 Feb 2001
By A Customer
This review is from: A Chorus Line [1985] [VHS] (VHS Tape)
"A Chorus Line" follows the fortunes of a multitude of dancers as they audition for a new show on Broadway. The gritty reality of the audition process to which dancers, singers and actors subject themselves is sympathetically portrayed, including some wonderful 'private moments' from some of them, detailing why they chose to become a dancer. Those from a theatrical background will find much to recognise (eg one of the first songs - "I need this job!"), but the film does not exclude those who have never experienced an audition procedure. The music is great, as is the choreography, and the film brings to living colour a show originally produced for the stage. It is one of those films that leaves you humming the music, tapping your toes, refreshed by the humanity of it all, and wanting to watch it again.

1.0 out of 5 stars Terrible really....
I haven't seen this on stage so I judge only by what I see here. This is hard to define as a musical as there are so few actual musical numbers in the traditional sense. Read more

This movie to me was one of the greatest influences in my dance career because it captured the energy and the love for dance that only a dancer can know. Read more
