My favourite films are usually within the genres of horror, sci-fi and action. Romance, drama and musicals never really interested me as the plots are usually boring or too predictable to get stuck into. However, a movie in the genre of all three really surprised me to be rather enjoyable and that was “The Greatest Showman”. Although a lot of action and stunts were involved in the movie, which i found really impressive, the plot was also very creative and managed to really draw in an audience. Despite being based around the musical theatre production of Barnum, there was a lot of originality included with the characters and i found this movie highly enjoyable and entertaining. I also think the soundtrack for this movie is one of the best by far.

My favourite performance in the movie was “Rewrite the Stars” performed by actors Zac Efron and Zendaya, as the song was not only catchy but the trapeze art was amazing and the way they both worked together in this scwas absolutely stunning. Many impressive moves were shown specifically by Zendaya and the fact she learned trapeze art specifically for the film made the scene even more impressive and it really makes you appreciate the amount of work and passion that goes into a movie.
