I find this review offensive! I don’t agree with this review. I agree with this review.
2 stars (Good Try) The musical segments are good but you need to be patient as they are interspersed among the beatings and other activities of life. The story telling would have benefited from more conciseness although it certainly has energy. ~tubbs
