It's bad. Bad isn't a bad enough word for it.

Wow, is this an absolutely terrible movie. It may even rival Dinner for Schmucks as the worst of 2010. When it's not trying to be Chicago it's trying to be Moulin Rouge, and when it's not trying to be those it's trying to be Cabaret - all of which are much better films, and hell, Cabaret came out 40 years ago. You know it's bad when in the opening minutes Cher is onstage at a burlesque club, because lots of 60+ year old women perform at burlesque clubs. Featuring numerous cliches that nearly beat you to death with their lack of subtlety, terrible acting, and an annoying character at every turn, and you've got an entry in the movie-musical genre that is doing it's best to destroy the movie-musical genre.
