Movie Reviews of Jekyll & Hyde - The Musical
Movie Review: Fabulous!
Summary: 5 Stars
Normally I wouldn't buy anything sung by David Hasselhoff. But, I caught the last 15 minutes and the last showing of Jekyll & Hyde on HBO and was determined to get a copy for myself. I'm not easily impressed, but David Hasselhoff blew my socks off! No kidding, Knight Rider ala Babe Watch and American Idol is to be commended for his performance in this musical. His diction is perfect, his range topnotch, his turning into Dr. Jekyll from Mr. Hyde is downright creepy and will give you chills. The best is towards the end where Dr. Jekyll is attempting to take over the body of Mr. Hyde, and Hasselhoff has to sing a dual part of Jekyll and Hyde at the same time. Not to be missed. David Hasselhoff is absolutely fabulous in this musical. The entire cast including the set designers are to be commended also. It was fascinating to see what effects could be created with a limited set design. Really great job! This entire musical is really, really good!
Summary of Jekyll & Hyde - The Musical
The longest-running show in the history of Broadway's Plymouth Theatre, Jekyll & Hyde: The Musical brings new life to Robert Louis Stevenson's classic story of romance and the epic battle between good and evil. A whirlwind odyssey pitting man against himself is set in motion when the brilliant Dr. Jekyll's medical experiment backfires, giving life to his evil alter ego, Edward Hyde. The show won a legion of repeat visitors (dubbed by the press as "Jekkies") and spawned hit songs on the pop charts with "Someone Like You" and "This Is the Moment."Baywatch alum David Hasselhoff stars in the dual title roles of Jekyll and Hyde: The Musical, Frank Wildhorn and Leslie Bricusse's version of Robert Louis Stevenson's gothic horror classic. The story of the brilliant scientist who uncovers the good and evil aspects of the human heart was a pay-per-view event on the Broadway Television Network, filmed on stage before a live audience. If that audience had seen a lot of Broadway shows, they probably didn't see much they hadn't seen before, but its familiar plot and accessible pop score give Jekyll and Hyde a certain appeal, especially for musical novices.
Notable songs for Coleen Sexton and Andrea Rivette (as good girl Lucy and bad girl Emma, respectively) include "Someone Like You," "Once Upon a Dream," and the duet "In His Eyes." Hasselhoff cuts an imposing figure but is somewhat unsteady in such anthems as "This Is the Moment," which are tailor-made for big voices (for example, Linda Eder, Wildhorn's wife and the creator of the Lucy role). --David Horiuchi
