Phantom of the Opera, the movie

Watched the DVD of The Phantom of the Opera movie version for the first time. The movie was really, really bad. Now, I know that the movie was just "based" on the musical, but I really didn't like the reorchestrations at all, the scenes were confusing, and it totally lacked the magic of the stage version. What's worse, though, was that the actor cast as the Phantom sucked! I can't imagine what they were thinking when they cast him—he's not a singer! His voice was worse than flat, it was off-key, and they should have at least gone to the effort of electronically enhancing and tuning his singing, because he totally distracted me and ruined every scene in which he sang.
