I saw this yesterday evening. In the largest screen at my cinema were a total of 7 other people!
I didn't hate it but didn't love it either. The aspect ratio changing when Regina had her songs (to be more pop video like) was weird as it just meant a smaller image on the screen so it looked a bit lost (with masking on all 4 sides!). I've not seen the stage show (yet) but know the cast recording so the changes caught me out. But it is good that it isn't a carbon copy.
I just am not sure if it knew what it wanted to be. It hasn't been promoted as a musical but definitely is one. A few callbacks to the original film but was it a remake of that with songs or a film of the musical? Why doesn't Cady have a dad anymore? So many questions.

Watched this tonight, I actually loved it! I liked how different totally and stylistically it was to the stage show, I don’t think it would have translated well at all if they kept it the same and very cheesy/musical’y. I did miss a couple of songs, but again can see why they were taken out. Cadys voice did really annoy me though.
