I totally love this movie. Zac Efron and Zendaya were my most favorite couple in the movie. I love Keala settle (the bearded woman). She sings This Is Me, the song has a very strong meaningful message to it that tells you that no one can change you for who you are or who you wanna be in life. As I was scrolling through the other comments on the movie, the movie only focus on Zendaya and Zac Efron love between each other. What about the other cast members. What about that little man, the white lady, the big overweight guy or anyone else. They should be appreciated as well as the main characters.

The Greatest Show reminds me of the excitement I felt in my stomach when Eliot & E.T. rode across the sky, when Oz burst into Technicolor, and when Harry Potter left his cupboard under the stairs from the house on Privet Drive for Hogwarts. The message that we're all the same, we have something unlike that found inside anyone else is timeless. Gather up those you love in life, pop some corn and settle in for a renewal of the lovers and the dreamers (and me).

First came Hugh Jackman's unforgettable performance in Les Miserables. Now Jackman literally takes center stage in this fabulously historical original musical story of the Barnum and Bailey Circus. All the songs in this movie had me tapping my fingers and singing along with the words especially that of The Greatest Show, This is Me and the Rewrite the Stars love song between Zac Efron and Zendaya which instantly became one of my favorite songs. Combining drama with musical and historical elements, Greatest Showman gave me such a musically fun experience.
