 In some bright scriptwriter's brain, there's a musical that evokes the heyday of Rooney and Garland and stirs you up with song and dance. Walt Disney's "Newsies" is not that musical.  "Newsies," the new live-action Disney musical, attempts in a rather willful manner to revive the glorious heyday of Hollywood song and dance films. And, in balance, the payoff is more positive than negative. Its intentions seem fairly modest, and so are its achievements. It's a modestly enjoyable diversion. What I find hard to believe, however, is that anyone thought the screenplay based on these actual events was of compelling interest. "Newsies" is like warmed-over Horatio Alger, complete with such indispensable cliches as the newsboy on crutches, the little kid, and of course the hero's best pal, who has a pretty sister. Nor does the movie lack the standard villains, including Oscar nominee Michael Lerner as the hardhearted circulation manager.

July, 1899: When Joseph Pulitzer and William Randolph Hearst raise the distribution price one-tenth of a cent per paper, ten cents per hundred, the newsboys, poor enough already, are outraged. Inspired by the strike put on by the trolley workers, Jack "Cowboy" Kelly organizes a newsboys' strike. With David Jacobs as the brains of the new union, and Jack as the voice, the weak and oppressed found the strength to band together and challenge the powerful.

It's a cheerful, catchy Disney musical... about child labor. I hate this movie. I hate it so much.
