Too late! I just returned from it with my wife and daughter. :) I 
agree with you though. The nice surprise was the music and the FOW 
connection. The opening number was great, silly fun. But then much 
of the script goes "clunk, clunk, clunk". Some occassional lines 
that brought a smile but so many that didn't. 
Well, my daughter loved it so that's a good thing.
