Hats off to Rob Marshall for taking a cast not necessarily obvious for this story and moulding them into an entertaining trio. The screenplay has been sanitised a bit, and proves really quite thin: "Roxie" (Renée Zellweger) and "Velma" (Catherine Zeta-Jones) are both convicted murderesses who will do just about anything to escape death row. Using their skills as dancers, and their gifts for attracting publicity they must try to engage dodgy lawyer "Billy Flynn" (Richard Gere) to help get them out of the clutches of prison warden "Mama Morton" (a superb Queen Latifah). That's all pretty incident... read the rest.
