MOVIE REVIEW | 'CHICAGO'

'Chicago,' Bare Legs and All, Makes It to Film by ELVIS MITCHELL
It's rare to find a picture as exuberant, as shallow — and as exuberant about its shallowness — as the film adaptation of the Broadway musical "Chicago."

CHICAGO

Review by Roger Ebert
"Chicago" is a musical that might have seemed unfilmable, but that was because it was assumed it had to be transformed into more conventional terms. By filming it in its own spirit, by making it frankly a stagy song-and-dance revue, by kidding the stories instead of lingering over them, the movie is big, brassy fun.
