Entertainment Reviews:
Rating: 3/4 --
This is the kind of show that demands to be seen live, and no amount of cinematic spectacle can replace a Broadway production.

It's a spectacle without the aspects that make it a spectacle.

The real stars here are Hugh Jackman and Anne Hathaway. Go to see their truly inspired portrayals, as well as the new song Suddenly.

Rating: 3.5/5 --
For those unfamiliar with the play, watching the movie will make for a decent introduction; it's a bit overlong, perhaps, but while there's a slight disconnect from the source material, there's also an undeniable passion and respect for it.

[T]his production is visual to the max, with an epic physical scale and grandeur the play couldn't possibly have.
Los Angeles Times
A spectacular musical adaptation, Les Miserables is a mind-boggling production.

San Diego Entertainer
LES MISERABLES is sweeping, as would be expected given the scope of the hugely popular stage musical from which it is adapted. But it's also wonderfully intimate, thanks to Tom Hooper's deft direction.

Product Description:
Academy-award winning director Tom Hooper's adaptation of the beloved musical LES MISERABLES makes no major changes to the original's plot. The story follows former prisoner Jean Valjean (Hugh Jackman), who, after being released from the watchful eye of police officer Javert (Russell Crowe), is unable to find work because of his status as an ex-convict. He eventually steals from a local church, but when apprehended, the priest claims that Valjean was given the valuables. This triggers a change in Valjean, and he constructs a new identity for himself as a pillar of society and a local businessman. Years later, he adopts a young girl named Cosette, whose mother Fantine (Anne Hathaway), a former employee of his, became a prostitute and died a horrible death in the gutters after being fired. As the years progress and the French Revolution begins to foment, a grown Cosette (Amanda Seyfried) falls for a passionate revolutionary named Marius (Eddie Redmayne), while Javert begins to close in again on Valjean's secret past.
