South Pacific

Pros: Excellent acting, wonderful characterizations. Everything was equally as good as the original

Cons: None.

The Bottom Line: This was an excellent interpretation of the original and well worth watching. ABC and the cast should be well pleased with themselves!Brilliant performance.

Review: It is always difficult to re-make an old favourite musical, and expect to catch the hearts of those watching this version with as much fire as did the original. I must admit, I expected to find much to criticise in any re-make of "South Pacific", even...

Pros: THE MUSIC OF COURSE

Cons: Little bit dated now. Some aspects of racism

The Bottom Line: If you want nostalgia with no sex and little violence, a movie to dream along with then South Pacific is for you.

Review: Well I'm halfway through reading a very long book, but feel I must feed my addiction to musicals so will write an opinion about one of my favourite films of all time South Pacific.......yes, I know, I'm a soppy romanticist! !

Review: I wish I could cheer ABC for putting this classic & excellent musical back on prime-time, but unfortunately this remake fails to capture the heart and romance of the original. South Pacific has one of Richard Roger's most beautiful and evocative scores,...

Pros: Great music

Cons: Not believable, slow, lame acting

Review: Okay, if you like Rogers and Hammerstein's musicals you will like this movie. However, be prepared to be less than impressed with the rest of the movie.

We've all heard some of the songs. "Some Enchanted Evening" has been recycled...

Pros: The original theatrical release - Five Stars

Cons: The video, with its wild and very distracting color variations, gets only One Star

Review: In 1958, when I was a little girl of 9, my parents took me to see "South Pacific" at the Saenger Theater in New Orleans. The Saenger was a grand old Egyptian style movie palace, complete with elaborately painted plaster moldings, red velvet...
