Advantages: Good music. Interestingly presented. You get to see a lot of New York City Disadvantages: Some weak and corny performances.
(N.B. This is a film only review)
When my partner and I sat down on Easter Sunday, trying to find something to watch on the telly, we came across the film, 'Godspell'. We were faced with over 100 channels and the thought of flicking through them all made me want to be sick (or that may have been from the excessive amount of chocolate we had just consumed) so we decided to watch the film. I wasn't completely averse to it, as we did the stage production ... ...there but never actually watched the whole thing, my opinion of it had always been that it looked too 60s hippy and happy clappy for my liking. So, essentially, I thought it was about time I watched it, and I quite enjoyed it!
Godspell, (the full, official title is 'Godspell, the gospel according to Matthew') is the film version of the stage musical (originally conceived by John-Michael Tebelak) written by Stephen Schwartz (the guy who wrote 'Wicked') ...
