I loved it, one of the “leggiest” movies of all time, so I think most other

Fiddler on the Roof, The Sound of Music, My Fair Lady

Annie, Once, even Pitch Perfect — or most Disney cartoons, etc.

Gustav

I didn’t go in to Greatest Showman expecting it to be a true representation of PT Barnums life.

Anyone who doesn’t like this movie is a troll or has terrible taste.

Seems that liking it being under 2 hours and disliking it being underdeveloped

Seaward
