I really enjoyed this movie. It's one of those few films that I could recommend to anybody, regardless of tastes.
Renee Zellweger's skill as a comedienne reminds me of Carol Burnett and Lucille Ball. Contrasting with her innocence, Catherine Zeta-Jones reaches out and grabs your collar. She's totally believable as an old black magic kind of babe. Richard Gere probably surprised even himself by having so much fun. Yet when he turns and says, "That's Chicago," you see there's still some real world grit in him. And guess what Canadians, Pierre Trudeau plays the assistant district attorney! (Nice to see Colm Feore on the screen again.)
My real hats off goes to the director, the choreographers, and especially to all the lighting, cameramen and sound technicians that made this happen. "Entertainment Weekly" says they went from start to finish in two months. Absolutely amazing. You people behind the scenes, step up and take a bow. You made this movie wonderful.
