The Greatest Showman is a jolly good movie for the whole family during this Christmas season. The songs were awesome, and that comes as no surprise since the music was done by the same team that gave us La La Land. I think the sound track is going to end up in a lot of stockings this year. The musical number between Zac Efron and Zendaya alone is worth the price of admission, but the song, This Is Me, belted out by the ‘Bearded Lady’ (Lettie Lutz), will leave you breathless.
The obvious plot of the movie – that all God’s children are perfect – certainly resonates for the holidays.
Grade: A
About The Peetimes: There were so many great songs in this film, and in between the musical numbers was some pretty good dialog, making good Peetimes difficult to find. I’ve designated the 1st Peetime as an ’emergency’, because half way into the break we hear Jenny Lind (Rebecca Ferguson) sing. So if you don’t want to miss the 1st half of her performance, I suggest you wait for the 2nd Peetime.

about the RunPee app.

One of the most useful apps I've ever come across. I've used it for years and recommended it to all my friends. Even if I'm not the type to have to pee during movies often, being able to pull up the app and pass my phone to my mom/friend/grandma so that they know when to go to the bathroom has been invaluable. Because then I don't have to summarize anything when they get back!!

RunPee Mom is our emotional bedrock. Without her, RunPee never would have lasted a decade as an app (which is since the dawn of time in internet years). She’s our biggest cheerleader and an unending source of unconditional love. She works cheerfully and tirelessly, seeing any movie we ask of her, writing interesting reviews, and being our…well…MOM. Her genres of choice: kiddie flicks, animated movies, emotional dramas, historical features, war films, diverse biographies, and even dense, diabolically plotted thrillers. She knows more about famous and infamous figures in history than said figures probably knew about themselves. She’s the Quiz Manager for the RunPee.com blog, and our resident movie celebrity/trivia expert. If you’ve taken a RunPee Quiz, you’ve most likely been given a virtual hug by RunPee Mom.
