i rent this movie know that it be say to be horrible and but i just have to see it for myself . this movie be ridiculous . it horribly act and horribly write and and it just be plain bad . the movie take place in france but 90 % of the cast be italian . there be no feeling of the classic phantom story line . there be no mystery no feeling of actual connection between the phantom and christie . all of a sudden christine love the phantom and immediately have sex with him and then she hat him and then she have sex with him again and then she hat him and then she love him again . i can not believe that dario could actually film his daughter in a sex scene and thats just plain mess up . and let me say that asia be a horrible actress and no matter what people say i do not think she be attractive at all . the only reason i can think of that asia get this part be because every other actress turn it down . another part that be ridiculous be when the phantom rip out carlotta breast and threaten it cut them off and whats up with that . and the rat catcher and the little person be just a dumb side story . bottom line bad act bad story bad movie . seriously do not waste the $ to rent this movie and luckily i get it for free .
