Our Take

Barbra Streisand’s latest offering, Encore: Movie Partners Sing Broadway, is like stumbling upon a vintage musical theatre treasure trove in your grandma’s attic. With iconic duets featuring Hollywood heavyweights like Hugh Jackman, Jamie Foxx, and Alec Baldwin, this album is a star-studded affair that's as indulgent as a box of fancy chocolates.

Streisand's powerhouse vocals are in peak form, effortlessly gliding through classic show tunes like "At the Ballet" and "Climb Ev'ry Mountain" with the finesse of a seasoned Broadway diva. The chemistry between her and her duet partners is palpable, especially on standout tracks like "Anything You Can Do" with Melissa McCarthy and "Coney Island" with Chris Pine.

However, Encore isn’t without its missteps. The cheesy, over-the-top arrangements on tracks like "Loving You" and "Pure Imagination" veer dangerously close to turning this star-studded affair into a snooze-fest.

Overall, Encore: Movie Partners Sing Broadway is a delightful nostalgia trip that showcases Streisand’s enduring talent and charm. While it may not reinvent the wheel, it’s a fun, feel-good romp through some of Broadway’s greatest hits that will leave you tapping your toes and humming along to your heart’s content. It’s a bit like getting swept away in a Technicolor musical extravaganza, with Streisand leading the way as the ultimate showbiz queen. Grab your popcorn, sit back, and enjoy the show.
