Critics Say
Death Becomes Her
Critics largely embrace this campy musical adaptation as a hilarious crowd-pleaser that improves on the 1992 film, with standout performances from Megan Hilty and Jennifer Simard and dazzling production values delivering pure escapist fun.
Beetlejuice
Critics are divided on this manic musical adaptation, with some embracing its high-energy chaos and eye-popping visuals while others find it exhaustingly loud and tonally confused. Alex Brightman's performance wins widespread praise.
