“Burlesque”
2010
When it came out, I thought, “Eh. Not good, not bad. Just eh.” But a re-viewing confirmed my darkest suspicions that this pile of clichés is pretty execrable. Poor Cher has to act all noble and wise, while Christina Aguilera exudes friskiness as the ex Iowa waitress attracted by the glare of Los Angeles. Add love story, a villainess, screechy numbers and the threat of the club closing, and you’ve got every musical ever made put together — but worse.
