Rating: 2.5/4 --
A little weak in acting at first, but warms up nicely. Quite entertaining. And even more welcoming in 3D.

The picture's brio is quaint and disarming, for the most part getting its laughs when it needs them.

One of the all-time best movie musicals, with Fosse choreography and Porter's vunderbar music.
