Netflix recommended this as one of the most rewatched movies on Netflix. Glad I watched it. Sometimes critics miss the mark on a classic but the data is in and critics are wrong about this one.

If u dont like its ur problem… is A masterpiece!!! Love u Xtina and Cher …

I love this movie. Bought it on Amazon Prime and it's regularly played, whether I want an uplift from the songs, especially 46 mins into it or whether I want a great background movie. The soundtrack is amazing, a simple storyline and a good cast, I love Cher and since Burlesque, Christina Aguilera. If you like musicals, there is plenty in this to keep you happy.

Christina Aguilera's singing performances are as good as it gets since the invention of the phonograph. The dramatic side of the movie is cliche & predictable, but hearing C.A. dominate the entire history of female vocals makes it a must watch.

Is the plot trash? Ok it is. A girl from nowhere but has the voice of Christina Aguilera moves to LA and … just wants to perform at a small burlesque club. Why? The intro to the club complete with band moving onto the stage and Alan Cummings is such a cabaret rip off it is almost cringe. The intro to the club also mentions a financial crisis at the first of the month, so her journey from being club waitress, dancer, singing star, falling in love, negotiating a financial deal and everything else that feels like months (to the point they have a time goes by video montage) happens in less than 30 days. That all being said it is so bad it’s wonderful. The club focus keeps the world small but personal. The overall plot is very different from cabaret — yet part of that strips it of depth and meaning. The bartender is a hottie while Cher and Christina are amazing. 5 stars, even if the plot is trash lol.

Although the script of Burlesque is not solid enough, the performances and staging are simply fascinating and entertaining, Christina Aguilera stands out in each musical performance and Cher is simply sublime.

I really enjoyed it. Christina Aguilera and Cher sing their butts off, Kristen Bell plays against type and Stanley Tucci does his thing in this classic underdog story. If you liked A Star is Born, Burlesque will definitely brighten up a dull afternoon for you.

Honestly, the acting is pretty bad in this movie but somehow it makes it even better. Cher, Xtina, Kristen Bell and Stanley Tucci all in one movie, what more do we need? It's become a bit of a cult classic. Also, the storyline is pretty identical to Coyote Ugly and I'm not mad about it ✌🏻

I found "Burlesque" to be just okay—not a film that I would consider exceptional or one that I’d want to revisit anytime soon. In fact, I’ve only watched it once since its release, featuring Cher and Christina Aguilera in the lead roles. The film follows the story of a young woman who gets involved with a group of burlesque dancers, with Cher playing the role of the club owner. While the singing was impressive, I felt that the film's narrative was somewhat disjointed. It struggled to maintain focus, and the writing seemed all over the place, failing to guide viewers on a cohesive journey. Instead, it relied heavily on musical performances, which left the overall plot feeling a bit flat. Both Christina and Cher delivered commendable performances given the material they had to work with. They brought their star power to the screen, trying to elevate what could have been a standout film featuring two megastars. However, despite their efforts, "Burlesque" didn’t quite capture the excitement or depth I was hoping for, making it a movie that didn’t spark my interest for repeat viewings. It felt more like a film that existed simply to showcase its stars rather than to tell a compelling story.

The singing does it for me! Christina's voics is amazing! Plus the eye candy for girls is a bonus, some good looking men!! Worth watching!

I honestly could watch it over and over again! The music and dancing just makes it everything - that the cast is AMAZING! CHER, Christina, Tucci, Bell (rocked it, love to see her in this light), Julianne Hough - and many others! To each their own, but I LOVE it! ❤

Lots of beautiful sexy women

Cliche but entertaining and the music is wonderful in this movie. I just wish it was less about a love affair and more about the new girl on the block proving she belongs.

No idea what these other critics are talking about. Not the best movie, no- but not the worst. It’s like a 2000s basic romcom with enough entertainment to enjoy. In detail the plot isn’t great, a run of the mill small town girl makes it big type, but then again nothing to truly hate on.

Xtina and surprisingly, Cher do this movie justice. Kristen Bell shedding her good girl image is good. Good music numbers. Rags to riches plot. Original A star is born was better.

Iconic from start to finish.

I've watched Burlesque so many times I can't even count and I will continue to watch it over and over. I absolutely love it and I love the roles that Cher and Christina play. I was completely caught off guard to find the ratings it had, the movie should definitely be rated higher in my opinion.

This is an awesome movie. The cast of this musical drama is absolutely amazing. Most of all Christina Aguilera and Cher are great together. Their powerful vocals within the movie are absolutely phenomenal. The soundtrack that comes along with this movie is an absolute masterpiece. If you like musical drama movies, definitely check this out.

I cannot believe people don’t love this movie. It’s such classic. Definitely campy but I love it. Cher’s character is brilliant and Christina Aguilera absolutely crushes it. Definitely don’t knock this movie until you watch it.
