kz917-1 Welcome to the Kit Kat Club with all the dancing, debauchery, and drama!Fantastic song & dance interspersed with a dramatic story of who loves who and who sleeps with whom.Too much drama for me.

yurisilvasouza2001 "Cabaret" was the most influential musical film since "42nd Street". Widled considered one of the greatest films ever made, it follows the young, wild and sensitive American Sally Bowles, who lives in Berlin and work in cabaret "Kit Kat Club". She met Brian Roberts, a young British, shy and reserved who needs work as a English teacher. They immediately feel attracted for each other but some problems come with her obsession with money and his attraction for other men. Meanwhile, a destructive power grows in Berlin...In the early '70s, when the films that explore violence and sex began to take care of movie theaters, musicals seemed to be too outdated to suit young moviegoers expectations with the "New Hollywood". Until Bob Fosse (doubtless, the most underrated director) adapted a Broadway musical that defined the posterior types of it's genre. "Cabaret" is not full of sparkles, it does not have a happy ending and is waaaaaaay sexual for kids used to having the Gene Kelly movies. Still, it is the adult themes (that even some adults are not mature well enough to understand them) which include corruption, sexual ambiguity, false dreams and hedonism that include it as one of the most important of the 70's.

grantss Entertaining. Set in Germany in the 1930s, an entertainer, Sally Bowles (played by Liza Minnelli), is in relationships with two men. Meanwhile, the Nazi party is starting its rise to power...The musical and theatrical numbers are great, the initial plot is intriguing and the movie seems propelled by a bouncy vibe. However, ultimately the plot is so-so: it doesn't really go anywhere or make any profound statements. The Nazi Germany setting gives a vast amount of room for biting statements, but the movie only scratches the surface.Liza Manelli is superb in the lead role. Her bubbliness and warmth keep the movie going and give it a beautiful light feeling. Good support from Michael York and a host of German performers.

Irishchatter I have to say, I thought the storyline was all the place because i didn't know much German and it was difficult for me to understand on what the characters were saying really. The only person I understood more in the film was Liza Minnelli because i find that she spoke more clearer then the rest of them. It wouldn't make any difference if she was Amercian or not, she was more on the ball. Although I found the storyline really boring, the music really stood me out. I honestly loved 'Maybe This Time' since it is a very well known song and of course it was covered many times by different artists including the TV show 'Glee'. I wouldn't call this a best musical movie I've ever seen but I applaud the music that was involved in it!
