This is the most fun I've had watching a film in many years. The songs and choreography are both better than any other music film I can think of (except, maybe, "Singin' in the Rain").The drama is intriguing, and somehow works alongside the musical whimsy. Catchy songs all around. My personal favorite is probably "In America":
If there is any weakness, it's that the male leads pale in comparison to the excellent Natalie Wood and Rita Moreno; but that is a good problem that more movies should have. My rating for this movie is 9.3.
