iTunes Review

It didn’t take Hollywood long to come knocking after Jonathan Larson’s ambitious, generation-mulling Broadway musical became a box office sensation, scoring an armful of Tony awards and the Pulitzer prize for drama in its wake. If hardly the logical choice to adapt it, director Chris Columbus has nonetheless bravely cut and retooled Larson’s songs and drama for the screen. That sense of cinematic focus is evident throughout the film’s soundtrack, whether recasting “Seasons of Love” as a muscular new crowd-pleasing opener or torching up “Light My Candle” and “Take Me or Leave Me” several degrees via duets that now feature Rosario Dawson/Adam Pascal and Idina Menzel/Tracie Thoms, respectively. While fans of the show may miss some of the show’s more involved musical/character interplay, the film’s soundtrack features a welcome new addition in “Love Heals,” a previously unfinished Larson overture that now serves as the saga’s warm coda.

No Day but Today

Jonathan Larson's musical masterpiece lives on. What else can you expect from this cast? Six of the eight Original Broadway Cast (OBC) reprising their roles, the two new additions mesh perfectly into the fold. It's like listening to the OBC production, just updated. Favourites include: I'll Cover You sung by Collins & Angel; One Song Glory sung by Roger; La Vie Boheme sung the cast; What You Own sung by Roger & Mark; Finale B sung by the cast; Love Heals sung by the cast.

Changed my perspective on life

I would say that I'm a "small C" conservative in most off my social thoughts. That said, I saw the play, with my wife, on Broadway, then again a few years later, when it came to my city in central Canada. We went to see the movie with friends in December 2005. For the avenue of celuloid versus live theatre, the movie was just as good as the live play. Sometime in your life you have to see either one.

Awesome!

When my friends first foeced me to watch rent, i was furious. Now i can't stop singing the songs! I loved it. I know all the songs and LOVE them. I think rent was one of the best movies and soundtracks ever! You don't even need the movie. the songs tell the whole story.
