   Is 'Rent' a good movie?

   • According to many users, "Rent" is an excellent adaptation of the stage musical. It is handsomely filmed and very well acted. The movie version takes the story out into the city's real locations. Most of this movie is singing, but it is so well done that it never breaks the 'suspension of disbelief' that as an audience we grant the fiction we are watching.

   Why is Rent (2005) considered a bad movie?

   • The excessive prettiness in Rent (2005) is a significant detriment to the film's authenticity. The people portrayed are awfully beautiful to be homeless AIDS victims. These characters have a deliberate, calculated, manicured image designed to make the idea more digestible.

   What movies did you watch after 'rent'?

   • After “Rent,” there was “The Phantom of the Opera.” “Chicago.” “Les Misérables.” I knew from the critics I read and from friends who’d seen live performances that the movie versions were less than what had been on the stage, but my mother and I watched each one, hungry for theater in any form.

   Is rent a manipulative movie?

   • Rent is also a very manipulative movie. It's like it's constantly yelling at you, telling you how cool it is and explaining why you should be crying. I've never seen the musical, so perhaps it plays better on stage, but this adaptation didn't make me want to rush out and buy a ticket.

   What is 'Rent' and why is it significant?

   • Rent refers to a celebration of the life on that side of New York during the 80's when anarchists populated the lower east side of Manhattan and lived precariously at the edge of a society that didn't want them around. At the bottom of it all is every day survival in that environment.

   Nov 22, 2005 · ‘Rent” is a stage musical that wants to be a movie musical. Many stage musicals, from “Oklahoma!” to “West Side Story,” feel right at home on the screen. “Rent” on film is missing a crucial element of its life-support system: a live audience.

   This review will concentrate on Rent as a movie rather than as an extension of a stage show. Rent, the movie, was a mixed bag for me. On the good side, all of the actors perform well.
