[Mike Blaxill]

in my humble opinion - doesn't even come close to
Hair, which has way better music, is way more
engaging...really no comparison

i thought Rent had one or two good songs (the one
with the 36900(?) minutes, another one about
Sante Fe was decent) - the narrative was kind of
random - it was just ok - and Hair is a
masterpiece

just my opinion
