The big screen version of Andrew Lloyd Webber's beloved musical tells the story of the mysterious Phantom who terrorizes the Paris Opera House while tutoring an enchanting young singer. With her beautiful voice, Emmy Rossum (Christine) is the real star, but the other leads do a satisfactory job of both singing and acting. This will likely be one of those movies that viewers either love or hate, but the filmmakers have done a good job of recapturing what the musical is like on stage.
