It's not perfect, but the biggest reason I refuse to watch the Les Mis movie again is because Russel Crowe cannot sing for shit; having him play Javert, a leading and powerful singing role, ruined what was otherwise a decent movie adaptation of a stage musical. It even had some really amazing casting choices, but that one absolutely ruined it for me.

I still remember the CinemaSins for that movie, they didn't spare him

It's so bad isn't it! He has a band as well. I imagine it's horrendous.

The one with Depardieu as Jabert is 100 times better, anyway.
