Movie Critic: “Paris Can Sing”

Paris Hilton gets praise for her role in Repo!

Movie critic Burt Wilson saw Repo! and gave it a rating of 8 out of 10. He wrote a review about it.

This is the passage in which he writes about Paris’ singing and acting: “Even Bill Moseley carries a tune quite well, and I have to admit, Paris can sing. The cuts I heard from her album sounded like a machine, but you can tell it’s really her singing here, and as an actress she fares far better here than in “House of Wax” (her role is also not very large compared to Vega and Head). There might be hope for her yet. The film’s co-writer, Terrance Zdunich also has a role as a grave robber/drug dealer, and he’s largely in the film to dispel exposition, but he also has one of the film’s catchiest numbers. Bousman has cast from all sorts of backgrounds – opera singers (Brightman), rock singers (Ogre), child actors (Vega), theater actors (Head), old school actors (Sorvino) horror stars (Moseley), and…whatever it is Paris Hilton does, and it actually works almost flawlessly. The songs vary from ballads to opera pieces to big rock numbers, so the varied cast fits the bill.”

Oh! This sounds really good! Why/how did he get to see it!

And is this a wide release or a limited release? And when does the soundtrack come out?
