"Chicago" focuses on the lives of Roxie Hart (Renee Zellweger) and Velma Kelly (Catherine Zeta Jones),two women who are both on trial for murder. Velma Kelly had murder her husband while Roxie had murdered her lover. They both are represented by the same lawyer, Billy Flynn (Richard Gere). He first trying to get Velma free of her charges when Roxie comes on the scene and he accepts her case as it comes with fame and exposure. As the film goes on we learn that he cares less and less about the two lives women and more about him securing his high exposure for a huge boost in clientele.
I enjoyed this film because i enjoy musicals and i feel like it had a really good storyline and the musical numbers were also well executed
