Absorbing, Great singing, Great acting

See it if you love powerhouse Broadway legends at their finest. Patti unexpectedly hilarious and Christine is perfect. Songstresses do not disappoint.

Don't see it if you want big dance numbers and upbeat catchy tunes. But story is absorbing and set is beautiful, to go along with fantastic talent! Loved it

Thought-provoking, Riveting, Intense, Profound, Great singing

See it if I loved it because of the music and the storyline, which was based on the true stories of 2 women cosmetic giants that were in competition.

Don't see it if you don't want to know about the cosmetic industry and all the wheeling and dealing that does on behind the scenes.
