"Why do I like this so much? It's not at all the kind of movie I usually go for... but it's a real fun romp."
Great movie and blu ray, but missing lots of good extras

"Moulin Rouge looks and sounds fantastic in high definition. They have done a great job with the movie itself. The DTS soundtrack is amazing. I am thrilled to finally have this on blu ray.
My only complaint is about the extras. There is a lot of good stuff here, but many of my favorite extras from the 2 disc DVD set are missing - the multi angle extended dance numbers, the dance rehearsal footage and some of the best deleted/alternate scenes. The dance rehearsals in particular are a loss because you can see the full choreography for the Can Can, Like A Virgin and the Hindi dance, much of which was cut or not shown in the film. It's really fun to watch and a shame it's not included.
The rare footage that is included is presented in a small window with a decorative border. This is very annoying and distracting. I would much rather see it full screen, even if it is lower resolution.
Overall I still strongly recommend this disc for the gorgeous presentation of the film itself. Just be aware that some of the best extras are not included, so hang onto your 2 disc DVD set, or seek out a used copy."

"The opening scene of this movie is a frenetic, whirling burst of lights, colors, and music! But try and stick with it because it is one luscious movie!
As the story goes, Christian, an impoverished writer, comes to Paris and falls in with Toulouse-Lautrec and the Bohemians of Montmartre, which leads us all to a merry romp at the Moulin Rouge. Christian meets Satine, the club's star and a beautiful courtesan. When he falls head-over-heels in love with her, a dangerous love triangle begins!
Ewan McGregor is terrific as Christian, Nicole Kidman is perfect as Satine, and they sing and dance!"
