Chicago — 

While Velma wows the crowd, wannabe-starlet Roxie Hart watches her with envy. Unfortunately for Velma she's just been arrested for murder, of her sister and husband.

Chicago's musical numbers unfold partly as products of Roxie's imagination, partly as chorus. The songs are used to move the story along and feel like the storyline instead of a pause in the action. Musical numbers are effectively integrated as character's inner-monologues.

The look of the film is fantastic, capturing the roaring '20's and vaudeville with amazing style. The choreography is fantastic
