After breaking his parole, Jean Valjean (Hugh Jackman) becomes a father to a factory worker's daughter, Cosette (Amanda Seyfried). He cares for her as he promised to her mother, Fantine (Anne Hathaway), and at the same time hides from Inspector Javert (Russell Crowe).

I love musicals, that is why when this movie was released, I immediately went to a movie house to watch. I love Tom Hooper's previous film "The King's Speech" which added excitement to me watching this film. I really do appreciate Hooper's style, I saw brilliancy on his techniques and how he managed to make every scene remarkable, that is why I really don't get why other people seem to hate him.
Moving on, of course, we can not deny the fact that this is one film where a dream cast ACTUALLY performed at their best. We witnessed several star-studded films but turned out to be a waste. OBVIOUSLY, the film made its stars shine the brightest on their careers (this goes to all!). No one deserves the title "Best Supporting Actress" this year but Anne Hathaway. Also, Hugh Jackman, as always, proved his worth on musical genre.
