I was going to write a long review eulogising about the spellbinding choreography, the timeless songs and the one-of-a-kind chemistry between the cast but what is the point when every film fan already knows what a timeless classic it is? It is easy to be cynical about the Hollywood machine, and even the film itself gently satirises the system that made it, yet every now and again that soulless production line churns out a perfectly formed piece of screen magic where every element is in perfect unity. In 1952 such an event occurred and Singin’ in the Rain has been enthralling generations of people ever since.

It is pure undiluted cinema at its finest.

I hate this film.

It makes me want to sing and dance.

And whenever I sing and dance a unicorn loses its horn.

Turning it into a horse with an ugly bald spot.

Forcing a mane comb over.

A mane over.

Manover.

Mover.

Move.

And we're back to dancing.

Bloody film.

*dances away to the sound of falling unicorn horns*

if you have noticed a sudden uptick in 20th century classics on your activity feed, don’t worry, it’s just me, trying to develop some Taste over here. and my god. i am loving it

but im realizing that with each classic film i watch i dumbfoundedly tell everyone i know that IT REALLY IS GREAT! only to be met with a chorus of some variation of “we know, bitch”

Singin' in the Rain: all of the above.

Simple plot and long songs, but lots of fun.

An amazing movie with singing and dancing that deserves the high praises. Really love the self aware vaudeville commentary.

"Singin' in the Rain" is a fun, musical and dancing adventure that audiences of all ages can enjoy.

The songs of the film are fun and remember-able, while the dance numbers (although at moments may last just a little too long for my liking) are fascinating to watch. The talent of the many cast (Gene Kelly, Donald O'Connor and Debbie Reynolds) shines through in every scene they are in while creating great chemistry between the three of them.

Another aspect of this film that may surprise many people watching this film for the first time is how funny the film is. The comedy of the film is delivered greatly through its dialogue, funny voices (mostly thanks to Jean Hagen's performance) and slap stick elements (all thanks to Donald O'Connor's character).

"Singin' in the Rain" is a timeless masterpiece and deserves to be viewed by all at least once in their lives.

Leading three give a jaw dropping performance. Watching them made me tired but god was it entertaining. Musical sequences is was carried me throughout the movie; plot has been done better. This is a movie about the evolution of movies; as such, some of its content took me out of the film as a viewer: the sudden black face scene in the studio and objectification of women.

“Well I can’t make love to a bush!”: a sometimes surreal song and dance for Hollywood, old and new.

Me gustan los musicales. Pero nunca había visto Singing in the Rain.
Este musical es justo de lo mejor de su género. Tiene grandes números musicales, llenos de color, producción enorme y grandes talentos. También cuenta con una comedia de pastelazo genial. No me dejé de reír en toda la película. 
Efectivamente, la pelicula es muy simple y plan en temas de personajes e historia, pero así son l mayoría de los musicales.

joy and happiness in film form.

Great movie but the real stars of the show are Donald O’Connor and the Make ‘Em Laugh scene
