If you like The Greatest Showman, I suggest that you leave this post. This is a list of all things I despised about the movie.
- Flaky plot
- Just waiting for the next song
- Listening to all the songs and thinking, “That’s a generic pop song.”
- How PT Barnum used the weirdos for profit while telling them they would be famous
- CGI ELEPHANTS
- Glossing over the fact that Barnum probably abused animals
- Glossing over the part of movie where the weirdos were abused by people on the street
- Glossing over how the Zendaya and Zac Efron fell in love in the first place
- Glossing over the personalities of the weirdos
- Glossing over the personalities of Barnum’s family
- Glossing over Barnum’s actual personality
- GLOSSING OVER EVERYTHING
- The opera singer did not sing opera, but a stupid pop ballad thing
- Insulting Hannah Montana with “This Is Me.”
- Insta Romance with Zac and Zendaya
- The argument/agreement song between Zac and Barnum was so bland I forgot it right after it was sung
- Most of the songs were so bland I forgot them in the same way
- The beginning sounded like something from Fall Out Boy
- There was this beautiful scene with Barnum and his family on the roof of their apartment with all these moving sheets and this beautiful night sky but it was wasted on terrible characters and a failure of a plot
- How Barnum’s manipulation was seen as good while the ballad singer’s manipulation was seen as bad
- A BUNCH OF OTHER THINGS
