    A difficult album to wrap your head around, but embraceable nonetheless. [18 May 2001, p.81]

    The only significant problem with Kidman and McGregor's numbers, which constitute half of this 15-track set, is that they don't work as well without the accompanying visuals.

    Between the songs sung by the cast and those by famous popsters, Music From Baz Luhrmann's Film "Moulin Rouge" has a split personality, but this purposefully assembled collection is more cohesive than you'd think -- and that's something that can't really be said for most modern film albums.

    This anachronistic pop mix is unpleasant, grating, annoying, and to be honest, seemingly pointless.
