It seems to be the curse of the musical, non-animated that is, that it will be too long. That's the case here, but not to as much of a degree as many musicals. Not every song is great, but enough of them are good for the film to get by. Plus unlike many musicals it actually works when songs are not being and song as it is actually quite entertaining in just its realization of the path of one man, enjoyably played by Robert Morse, using every trick in a literal book to get to the top.
4/5
