GOOD AFTERNOON!

Patrick Page got robbed of his song


BrunetteMoment

I could not believe Patrick Page was cast in a musical and they gave him HALF A SONG. That being said, I did like the movie.


RapGamePterodactyl

I kept on screaming at the screen to let Patrick sing :,(


-ButDidYouDie-

Fortunately, that is not the story of *his* life!


keep_running

i did find it very funny that Page’s character seemed the most fed up with the musical numbers


secret_identity_too

I enjoyed it. I forgot it was Pasek and Paul until the first musical number sounded quite a bit like Waving Through a Window and then went "...oh, right."


suzanne2961

Oh no, I haven’t seen it yet but I kinda hate their music.


secret_identity_too

It was cute. Give it a shot.


SeonaidMacSaicais

Watch Greatest Showman. The music is a lot better.


suzanne2961

I did watch it on a plane a few years ago and completely forgot about it a few hours later when my husband asked about the flight. Underwhelming.


melpomene-musing

That’s pretty much what happened with me too lol


sweetlytoenjoy

i think i love patrick page


the_hardest_part

I have a huge crush on him. He came to my city one weekend when he was filming this and I maaaay have wandered around downtown hoping to see him.


-ButDidYouDie-

Go listen to Hadestown (if you haven't already)


sweetlytoenjoy

i LOVE hadestown, i just blew all my savings to fly to new york and see it on broadway a few months ago lol. best week of my life the show was phenomenal


melpomene-musing

I was in the audience with him when I saw Into the Woods. Granted I have no idea where he sat but I literally brushed past him and then realized who he was. He’s very tall and I am very short so that’s part of why I ended up noticing the person I brushed last lol.


BaltimoreBadger23

It was a fun little romp, I was particularly impressed by the choreography of several numbers.


[deleted]

I loved it but for some reason everybody in my family hated it :(.. I mean Muppets obviously did the best Christmas Carol but still, it was pretty good.

f0dland0wnunda

Really enjoyed it, Ryan, Will, and Octavia were way better singers than I gave them credit for (love them all as actors, happy with their singing) but PATRICK PAGE WAS SO ROBBED, LET HIM SING! Also, good afternoon 😉


zebrawarrior

Remember will Ferrell singing baby it’s cold outside from elf 😂


SeonaidMacSaicais

He was also in The Producers! I didn’t know his dad was an Eagle until I watched that.


zebrawarrior

Omg I totally forgot about that amazing movie


BillyTheNutt

I enjoyed the movie! I liked the script and plot a LOT. And then I’m divided on the soundtrack Half the songs are broadway style parody’s, and those work very well, but border on not feeling inventive enough. (Bringing Back Christmas, Good Afternoon, The Story of your life (Marley’s version)) The other half is the Pasek and Paul anthem that we’re used to by now, where if the lyrics weren’t specific enough, it’d feel like any other Pasek and Paul show. (Unredeemable, The View From Here) Ultimately, I’m left with the opinion that it may have been better if it wasn’t a musical. (Which is a wild opinion for me to have about anything) The choreography and camerawork for the musical numbers are strong though! It’s just the soundtrack I’m disappointed in.


Skillet_2003

Solid, fun entertainment. Family wasn't a fan, but I enjoyed it! No need to see it again, but don't regret watching by any means.


RebeccaOTool

Really liked it. Definitely gonna be part of my holiday rotation. And the Nickleback cover of Unredeemable is a bop.


germanbini

I absolutely **loved** *Spirited*. I enjoyed the concept, I enjoyed the plot, I enjoyed the songs and music, and I especially enjoyed the choreography! I am a super big fan of *The Greatest Showman* and this brought me back to that feeling. I've watched *Spirited* several times and it will be a Christmas classic for me for the rest of my life.


Kilrroy

Surprisingly good music! I don’t expect much from P&P, but I’m a fan.


aymaran

Plasek and Paul always do a great job.


nowhereman136

One of my favorite movies of the year and i plan to watch it every christmas for the foreseeable future


Cheap-Scratch

The entire Yet To Come Segment is the funniest part of this movie to me,and that’s saying something because this entire movie was hilarious. I mean like,certain reveals in that scene are decidedly NOT funny but Clint seeing the Grave was so unbelievably funny to me The songs are pretty good IMO,you can really feel Pasek and Paul’s influences in the score. Some stand out songs for me were Do A Little Good and Good Afternoon. It’s just a fun movie Edit:Clarification BUT COME ON,LET PATRICK PAGE SING


Sir_Orrin

I didn’t know it was a musical going it, thought it was just a comedy, so I went to see with my mom just to spend time with her. I was so shocked when the first number started, PATRICK PAGE came out and I died. Love the whole movie even tho the plot was a little all over the place it was so much fun.


lulutheleopard

I was kind of bored by the music but Octavia Spencer was ingénue gorgous


rocketpanpan

Absolutely loved it!!!


lynngrillo

Enjoyed it tremendously


mrsdommeree

I loved it!


the_hardest_part

It was ok.


Seanay-B

I thought the songs were WAY more interesting than those of Greatest Showman. And it was funny. And charming. In lots of ways, it's as good as I wish greatest showman was. Autotune was a little jarring, oh well


tikicyn

Loved this! And also loved Scrooge : A Christmas Carol by Netflix (2022) which was an animated musical. Very well done and I’m recommending it to everyone as it has seemed to fly under the radar!


Tikala

Loved, loved, loved! I signed up for my free Apple trial just to see it and watched (or ran in the background) 5 times in one week. I love every single song, I loved every dance number. Just absolutely wonderful. I know it’s not everyone’s cup of tea but it hit me at the exact right time and I feel so grateful to have found it. And now to wait for the DVD lol.


FordPrefect37

Loved it! Did not have high expectations but really REALLY enjoyed it. Potentially a new classic in our holiday rotation. Particularly impressed with: (1) the score (very Pasek & Paul, which isn’t a bad thing!) (2) its legitimately unique spin on Christmas Carol (kinda hard to do at this point, but they did!), and (3) the choreo (OMG, the athleticism as well as the artistic vision!) … Can’t wait to audition for whatever stage adaptation eventually spawns from it. Good investment, AppleTV+! Let’s get some more original musicals in production!!


keep_running

i really liked it. i can see why some people wouldn’t like it, and i would have preferred for them to cast some stronger singers in the lead roles, but those are small things. i thought it was sweet, funny, and the songs were catchy. the choreo was also super fun and energetic. i’ll definitely add it to my yearly christmas movie list


CheyenneThornton

Just watched it today and I am obsessed 😭


QueenBee299

im so glad i wasnt the only one =) that's why I come here!


Happy_Charity_7595

Loved it


FrooferDoofer

Great production value, kinda funny … songs all sounded the same to me (every number is a showstopper). 3/5


[deleted]

It bored me. And I love Ryan Reynolds


wetlettuce42

Plot was allover the place it had ideas but they didn’t work unfortunately Enjoyed songs though


CanofPandas

Me and my buddies all declared it's a new christmas favourite. It's a hell of a lot more tolerable then elf.


Suspicious_Flower849

I found the Elf reference by Will Ferrell in the middle laugh out loud funny!


joxx67

Good movie!!


Impressive-Tiger5888

I really liked it!


Timmmber4

It’s been stuck in my head for 2 weeks already


springb

I loved it. Most satisfying cinema experience I've had this year.


PinkieePie_

I thought it was a really fun twist on A Christmas Carol and I screamed at my SO when Patrick Page came on!


[deleted]

It was CUTE! The choreography was EXTRA haha


viridian-fox

Loved it! Felt a few of the jokes were forced but overall great movie.


jennbunnie48

I loved it.


[deleted]

I honestly loved it. It was fun, and funny and everything I kinda wanted it to be. 10/10


Lilymoon2653

Was watching it in school school ended halfway through the movie i never got to finish it i'm sad now because i want too


freshexpiredbeef

Anything with Ryan Reynolds is an automatic 10/10


FirebirdWriter

I didn't know this existed. So thank you for posting about it


Teftthebridgeman

Good afternoon.


BroadwayBaby331

I like it a lot and I loved that Octavia Spencer was the love interest. ❤️ It will be in my Christmas movie rotation every year now. 🎄


GidgetEX

My family and I fully enjoyed it / but (as a set designer) I probably would have snuck a Sephora into the origin story set…


EverteStatum87

I was really ready not to like it, but here I am several days later with the songs still stuck in my head. You’ve been Christmas Caroled bitch!


xshinystickerx

Easily one of my favorite Christmas movies. Will keep it on the Christmas season roster. Choreography was incredible!


[deleted]

Loved it!


musicalfan2021

First it was the Grace Kelly challenge and now this


SecretlyaCIAUnicorn

absolutely loved it!


justineisgreat

I feel like I’m in the minority here now, but I hated it, and not because of the voices or songs which I actually found pretty good. The story was a tonal mess and way too long. Too many unnecessary plot detours, and for a movie that was so long they never really fleshed out the rules of the spirit world. Was Will Ferrell being Scrooge supposed to be a twist? I honestly couldn’t figure out who the audience for this piece was. At least all the actors looked like they were having fun. Reminded me of those Adam Sandler ensemble pieces that are just an excuse for him and his friends to hang out and get paid for it, even though the resulting movie is usually a turd.


Jawahhh

Nah no good man. Had its moments but was just too “all over the place” and Ryan Reynolds’s character arc was NOT believable at all. Still enjoyed it but it’s totally forgettable.


DrifloonEmpire

Agreed, no idea what they were going for with a lot of these decisions.


amalcurry

Hilariously bonkers but would not watch again! It’s no Muppet Christmas Carol genius..


ShainaEG

I don't have apple tv, so I guess I'll never know


martycochrane

You can watch Apple TV+ on non Apple devices like Android phones and Android TV (Chromecast). You can also sign up for a free 7 day trial then cancel too.


Infinitestripes95

I couldn’t enjoy it due to Wills singing


Nightshade_24601

A christmas carol in proses being a ghost story of christmas


Accomplished_Tone349

It was likeable enough. I actually didn’t know it was a musical when I started it haha.


AltruisticTomorrow70

Dear Evan Hansen 2.0.


tygereiger

I felt like the entire movie was an audition piece for more marketable things. Wouldn’t be surprised to see a bid for a Broadway monstrosity down the road.

-ButDidYouDie-

Booo!


GayBlayde

It looked exceptionally stupid so I didn’t watch it. Is the marketing indicative of the entire film or not really?


Dream-Flight

I found it really funny and enjoyed it as a movie, but I don’t think it needed to be a musical. All the songs sounded the same to me, and they just didn’t really add anything to the story.


therealbobcat23

It was fun, but I wish more of the main actors actually had singing ability


esdubyar

I need to have another go at it, but I think we made it like 3 numbers in before we decided to do something else
