The Greatest Showman

Hello movie lovers, I come your way once again to share with you a movie I watched recently. This is a musical that I didn’t think would be nice but it ended up exceeding my expectations. I have watched musicals like high school musical but when I was a kid and to think of watching another musical during this stage of my life, I wasn’t too sure what to expect.

The show starts with a song that shows a glimpse of the future before taking the audience back in time to follow the life of the main character, “Phineaus”. We see how this main character struggled with his father to make ends meet and how he struggled after his dad died.

We also see how he struggled to win over and marry the girl of his dreams who comes from a rich family. We then see how he chased his dreams, failed on more than one attempt before finally being successful.

We also see how he lost this success after being too ambitious and not properly thinking about things. He then loses his family, business and friends temporarily before winning them all back in the show’s climax.

As someone who likes songs, this movie is a 10/10. The plot too is incredible and the actors and actresses did fantastic jobs portraying their characters. The show resolves around a circus so you get to see some nice tricks and it was nice to see that an actress such as Zendaya learnt the trapeze just to play her role well.

The movies highlights the importance of not giving up on your goals that and shows that no matter what anyone says, you can make it and make it well. It also teaches us the importance of family and not taking them for granted as we can lose them.

Then movie signifies the importance of not being tribalistic or racist but including everyone in whatever we do. It shows that even those who look the least likely to know something could be the ones to know how to do it best .
