Watched online, blurry print.
8 songs in the Soundtracks, 2 with performers.
Tagged as Musical, it's really, really not. Only the 2 songs with performers are "performed", and only as casual entertainment. Casablanca comes closer to being a musical. I've submitted a deletion, but will remove it from my list of musicals regardless. No idea what HP choreographed.
The only thing saving this from a 5 is that I rated it 6 before, and the print was very blurry. That's bad in a film with a lot of sight gags. And since that was a Netflix rating, it might deserve a 5 after all. 14k+ voters give it an average of 7.3.
The enormous pie fight at the end is quite the spectacle. I tried to imagine them shouting "Cut. Reset." and how long that reset would take, and how many people to clean the room and the costumes.
