Cliched, Entertaining, Indulgent, Great staging

See it if You want to see all the tourist attractions of NYC portrayed onstage. The Rockettes are featured, and the show is visually cool.

Don't see it if You don't like plots involving WHINY kids. Also the Rockettes were featured, but not as much as the Christmas Spectacular.

Insipid, Disappointing, Cliched, Great staging, Fluffy

See it if you have a high tolerance for "meh" dialogue that bridges musical numbers, and MUST see the Rockettes despite their being underutilized.

Don't see it if You're going to get mad that there are two child actors running in and out of Rockettes numbers; if you hate sappy dialogue and NYC cliches.

Epic, Banal, Entertaining, Poorly written

See it if you love the Rockettes. Or, if splashy production numbers are all you care about and want a short, tourist-friendly show about NYC.

Don't see it if you want ANY kind of an engaging story or can't sit through banal book scenes in between fun song-and-dance numbers.

Don't see it if You want depth or substance from book. (Though DCB's book was funny and never dragged, so props to him!)
