"I was surprised how much I got into this musical. It has its flaws, the "romance" if you can call it that between Jack and David's sister was not as developed as it could have been. But despite that and some other minor grips I really did enjoy watching this movie."

"Watched this in middle school with my choir class so good!!"

"Teaching the importance of organizing and collective bargaining through a silly musical retelling of the newsboy strike of 1899"

"Loved this! I recently watched it and remembered how much I loved it! I highly recommend. Unless you don’t like musicals."

"Nostalgic, feeds you serotonin, loveable characters, fun songs, touching moments of brotherhood, etc. The only major flaw to this movie is the love story between Sarah and Jack. 10/10 recommend unless you aren’t a fan of musicals"

"My comfort movie "

"Apparently Christian Bale's least favourite and most embarrassing film...this movie is SO GREAT. The soundtrack, Kenny Ortega's choreography, the endless quotable quotes...this has been at the top of my list since I was 10 years old. This movie was the first time I cared about names and was my introduction into knowing all sorts of random specific things about films and following specific actors' careers."
