I hated this adaption of Lois Duncan's book. The book wasn't her greatest work, but it was a hundred times better. The acting was dull, no character development, all they did if there was any acting was whine and be bratty. Because of all this this movie was horrible and I wouldn't recommend it at all to anyone. Don't waste your time.

I love Shakespeare and watching old as well as new versions. Although I tend to like older versions. I keep an open mind to both types. I rented this movie after much debate because it was recommended on a whim by a friend. I took my chances on it and watch maybe the first half hour and was utterly bored with it. I didn't feel that the casting was right and everything thing seemed to be spoken in a monotone. None of the actors were enjoyable and none stuck out in my mind. It was boring and I'm disappointed I spent the money to rent this film.

Putting It Together has a wonderful cast of singer/actors. It is a funny piece of work that is fun to watch and very enjoyable. Now I can't just give applause to Carol Burnett for her performance, but to the rest of the actors:John Barrowman(The Fix, Sunset Boulevard, Miss Saigon), George Hearn, Ruthie Henshall(TAC Les Miserables, Hey, Mr. Producer!, She Loves Me, Chicago), and Bronson Pinchot(The Langoliers). All these actors make a wonderful performance. They hold their act together until...(well I won't give it away to those who've not seen it). All of these actors have great voices. This performance is undescribable. It is absolutely wonderful to watch. I recommend this to those who enjoy theatre or Stephen Sondheim. EponineFantine.
