Oliver!

The singing is good all around except for Oliver himself he is rather terrible. Good thing the musical is really focused on the much more interesting characters. The two best are Ron Moody as Fagin who is perfect and Jack Wild as Artful Dodger, both worthy of their Oscar nominations. The songs are for the most part good, their better if Oliver does not sing in them though. Some are particularly good like reviewing the situation. The look is very good with Carol Reed's direction. Everything looks vibrant. And only who will buy sequence really goes overboard.
