Les Miserables
The 2012 adaption of the famous stage musical was very good, as it has been said worldwide. The movie about Jean Val Jean, or 24601 as some know him, (Hugh Jackman) 's redemption takes place in the French Revolution. The Golden Globe winning, Oscar nominated film has been appreciated around the world as one of the best films of 2012. I've come to see that it is one of the best. The film had an amazing cast with Hugh Jackman(The Prestige, X-Men) , Russel Crowe(Gladiator, A Beautiful Mind) , Anne Hathaway(The Devil Wears Prada, The Dark Knight Rises), Amanda Seyfried(Mamma Mia, Red Riding Hood), Eddie Redmayne(My Week with Marilyn), Helena Bonham Carter( The Fight Club, The King's Speech) and Sacha Baron Conan(Madagascar, Hugo). The musical has won the Golden Globe for Hugh Jackman and Anne Hathaway for their roles and has been nominated for 8 Academy Awards. The film did live singing, a risky thing to do in a film, but it worked out splendid! The singing was amazing! The director, Tom Hooper(The King's Speech), skipped out on an Oscar nomination, but deserved it highly. Overall it deserves an 8/10.
