Stanley Tucci, why would you be in a movie like BURLESQUE?
From the looks of these new stills, this movie looks like across between GLITTER, SHOWGIRLS sans boobs, and a shitty version of CHICAGO. Sorry to judge so early, but I can’t help myself. The plot even plays out like a Journey song, “A small-town girl ventures to Los Angeles and finds her place in a neo-burlesque club run by a former dancer.” She took the midnight train going anywhere. Steve Perry deserves better.
This is Steve Antin’s second directorial effort, the first being GLASS HOUSE 2: THE GOOD MOTHER. The cast also features a bunch of people that probably had nothing else better to do. Christina Aguilera, Cher, Kristen Bell, Stanley Tucci, Eric Dane, Cam Gigandet, Alan Cumming, and Julianne Hough will be starring. I like Cumming as well, but I can see why he might be drawn to this. There is no excuse for Bell who should fire her agent immediately. Cher has proved to be a decent actress, but this is just like CENTER STAGE or COYOTE UGLY. Something else 15-year old girls can log into their favorites.
Maybe you think Christina Aguilera is hot, if so check out the pics below.
