The Point of No Return - 2004 Film | The Phantom of the Opera 

That cape is an actor on its own

Lol Raoul's face during this whole song is like "yo he's trying to steal my girl"

The perfect example of a scene where fear, seduction and passion combine.

This is my favorite scene! It shows how much power he has over Christine. Every time she hears his voice she goes into a trance and the world around her becomes oblivious to her.

I think for someone who has never had professional training, Gerard's voice is so unbelievably amazing

Am I the only one who thinks this is the best movie Gerard has done??

While watching this scene I commented on the fact that her selves kept coming off and my sister said "I'm not surprised she's having trouble keeping her clothes on" and I couldn't laughing...... we had to pause the movie.

I don't know why people keep saying he's an awful singer, the Phantom is supposed to be untrained. It's not like there are singing coaches on hand in the catacombs beneath a 19th century french opera house.

Gerard Butler is HANDSOME that he still looks handsome with a Phantom's face. He is such a great actor and it brings tears to my yes when he sings 'All I Ask of You' reprise. It's such a sad song!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I've watched the movie like 10 times.

I can't believe this is the same guy from 300.

1:20 The guy on the left feels me. Oh my gosh, Phantom, take me now!

oh my god. that smirk at 1:13 killed me. Everyone is complaining about Gerard's voice, but I actually liked his the most. It sounded more passionate to me. Idk the movie version is my favorite. Michael Crawford was good too but I really liked this one. I think this song and All I ask of you are my favorite. Ahhhh i know the phantom is supposed to be terrifying and a murderer, but hes really cute. idk hes so dramatic its adorable

2:29 Never noticed Erik lookin up at Raoul like that lol

I actually like Gerard’s Phantom. I feel like there was this alluring sense to him (voice and left-side-of-the-face looks) that attracted Christine in the first place. The makeup crew could’ve done a bit more to make the disfigurement look worse, because I think that’s what’s really missing from this Phantom. Talk about the lighting all you want, but the right side of his face could’ve gone through more distortion than it did in the movie. As for the voice, Gerard might not have an opera voice or an extraordinary singing voice in general like the Phantom usually has, but there’s something about his voice that really catches my attention and pulls me in, and I think that’s what pulls Christine in as well. Gerard did a great job as the Phantom. Pulling in Christine with an alluring voice and mysterious looks only for her to find disfigurement and distortion on the masked side of his face and in his soul. As for Christine, Emmy also did a wonderful job. The innocence and sweetness in her voice was what really did it for me. And the fact that she could sing opera at 16-17 (which is how old the character is) is wonderful

I seriously think this scene is the most passionate. Despite the fact that the original version includes even more (that's right, because Emmy is only 17 y. o. here), even looks and touches are enough here. There is fear and seduction at the same time. Look with what desire he looks at her, watches her every move, probably idolizing Christine in his soul. He touches her very gently, at this time as "playing" with her. She understands who is with her, but continues to sing. And together they create something incredible. Although Gerard is not a professional singer, I consider him one of the best (with Ramin) in the role of the Phantom. Maybe he didn't sing so well, but his acting is clearly the best. He showed the passion, emotions, pain of this character best of all. And Emmy sang like a real Angel of Music❤

His voice is so hypnotizing makes ya wanna feel his body touch you XD

That cape flip doe :-) very sexy lol

I used to harp on Gerard not being as good of a singer as some of the others who have played the Phantom, but looking back he actually did a pretty good job for someone who's not a professional singer.

why are people here so negative... like if you think this cast sucks then I want you to try getting out there and sing like they do and act like they do. stop being so fricken negative and just think how beautiful the music is. so what the movie isn't exactly like how it is in the real thing. but alot of movies are different and making something alittle bit different isn't so bad , it could be very interesting. So if you want to be negative go somewhere else.

His voice can get any girl to fall in love how are there dislikes

my favorite movie of all musicals time

1:57 the guy in the left looks so not ready for this. He's too funny

Gerard Butler and Emmy Rossum are my favorite POTO couple! They played their roles so well, very captivating and so much passion. And this is my favorite song and part from the movie! I would love to see them star in another movie together. They have great chemistry together. ❤️ it!

Gerard makes a superb Phantom - I wish Christine has chosen him, but seeing Raoul cry makes me cry as well - so torn! Definitely the best song!

Say what you will but I absolutely LOVE Gerard as the Phantom. I also think he's a fabulous singer. His voice is so raw and natural. It doesn't matter if it sounds a big uncontrolled. It adds to the character and conveys the emotions he feels. Also I can't be the only one that thinks he looks super hot as the Phantom. Even when his face is shown he doesn't even look *that* bad. If I were Christine I probably would have chosen him lol 🤭

DAYUM BOY WORK THAT CAPE!! No but really, this is amazing. This musical is everything. Gerard and everything.

The way he looks and sounds while singing 'in your mind you've already succumbed to me' 0:32 makes me feel like I'm losing my innocence 🌚 P.s. Michael Crawford is my favourite Phantom's voice, but Butler sings this song better than anyone else: such passion in his voice, god...

and then he set the opera house on fire

Gerard Butler owned this role! The tumult of his personal life/past is channeled into this character. This movie should have won multiple Oscars

This is by far the sexiest song Phantom/Gerry sang in the entire movie. So passionate omg

when the phantom starts to sing I want to scream and cry of love and Christine's voice is so beautiful

No opera performence can match the level of the movie. Their voices are beautiful and the emotions much better than anything Ive heard so far

Is no one going to point out that "Piangi" suddenly lost a lot of weight in a couple of seconds, is wearing the wrong costume and totally has a different head? Like, even if Raoul and the audience doesn't know the play, surely a stage manager or a stage hand would see someone went off-script. No? Okay then...

By far my favorite song in phantom

I was no longer straight at 1:12

0:20 was the nail in the coffin of my awakening when i first saw this when i was young. The whole movie itself is my awakening, tbh.

You have come here In pursuit of your deepest urge In pursuit of that wish which till now has been silent Silent I have brought you That our passions may fuse and merge In your mind you’ve already succumbed to me Dropped all defences, completely succumbed to me Now you are here with me, no second thoughts You’ve decided, decided Past the point of no return No backward glances Our games of make believe are at an end Past all thought of if or when No use resisting Abandon thought and let the dream descend What raging fire shall flood the soul? What rich desire unlocks its door? What sweet seduction lies before us Past the point of no return The final threshold What warm unspoken secrets will we learn? Beyond the point of no return You have brought me To that moment when words run dry To that moment when speech disappears into silence Silence I have come here Hardly knowing the reason why In my mind I’ve already imagined our bodies entwining, defenceless and silent Now I am here with you, no second thoughts I’ve decided, decided

The way he moves that cape, the way he stands and moves, and then the way he glances up at Raoul at 2:29. One of the sexiest looks ever!

1:13 - 1:19 always catches me in a trance. Uuggghhh 😍😍😍😍😍😍

Haters always gonna hate ! He is so amazing! his voice is so great and oh my God I can just stop listen to him! Keep hoping that Gerard and Emmy will do Phantom 2. Can you imagine???? That would be a Boom! Haha

THE BEST CASTING EVER!!!!WELL!! DONE MR GERALD BUTLER.SUPERB INDEED!!PASSION AT ITS BEST!!SEEN THE MOVIE AND NOW HAVE THE D.V.D. NOW!!!THANK GOODNESS "THEY" DID NOT TAKE THEIR CLOTHES OFF IN HIS LAIR!!!!IT WOULD HAVE RUINED IT COMPLETELY!!!!!!!!GREAT MOVIE AND VERY ROMANTIC TO OBSESSION!!!!!THANKS FOR THE POSTING.FROM(U.K.).

When I first saw this movie, the people around me are like "oh, she's chosen the Phantom over Raoul". I feel like I was the only one who added "delusional" to the Phantom's characterization. The Phantom _wrote those words._ Christine isn't confessing her love to him with those words--those are her lines. He cornered her into saying that. Now, Christine's acting is another matter. Either she fully loves him, or she's conning him as per the trap.

The Progression of the Raoul: 0:31 What? 1:58 How dare he 2:29 Crap. He saw me. 2:41 Let’s get him 3:00 Faking confidence Edit: See ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-Y7SzY7AoivU.html for The Progression of the Raoul Part II

I never get the hate for this movie, and these performances… for me this is my Phantom, I couldn’t travel halfway around the world to see it in NYC… but this is my version… and they aced all the notes and the singing and the acting… look at this passion! Phew 🔥

Now Rauhl, no need to be jealous, it's just a role in a play

Phantom looks up and says " they think that they can outsmart me , they're wrong , i have a backup plan and i am taking Christine with me "

Raoul's face kills me😂😂😂

0:21 OMG

1:37-1:57 her expression is like desired while Raoul's like "What the hell is he doing here?! trying to steal my girl"

wow the best movie I've ever seen, 2020 anyone?

i remember my chorus teacher showing us this movie. it was one of the best classes i ever had. it sad my chorus teacher quit.

Anyone saying Gerard Butler can't sing may not have hear Oliver Reed singing in the movie 'Tommy'. Gerard sounds like Andrea Bocelli compared to Oliver. Plus I like Gerry's voice.

When Gerard started sing past the point of no return and the rest from there at 1:10, my stomach started aching (not in the bad way)

If the Phantom had been what one might call a 'trained singer' to the point of being an obvious equity-card stage performer, it would not have convinced me nearly as well as Gerard Butler does here. Personally, I like seeing and hearing so-called 'non singers' carrying off a singing performance with confident assurance like this.

By far the best song in this play/movie!!!👻🖤🎹

wow...Christine is so beautiful.

0:46 that baby smirk ahhhhh im dying

This is the most important song and scene this is the moment we realize it’s not one sided . I love how they portrayed it .

*Everybody: are complaining about the voice of the Phantom.* *Me:* I swear to God, if he asks me to jump off a bridge singing with this voice, I do it without hesitation.

2023 still i love song.

My number one movie the ability of singing opera shows how much of brilliant actor Gerard Butler is . Best songs and soundtracks

Imma find the 15 people who disliked this video

I love this movie so much

I can't say how smexy this scene is 😍😍😍😍

ok, why does the phantom remind me of Antonio Banderas as Zorro here?😂🙈

While I don’t think he’s the best Phantom portrayal, I definitely think this is the best version of the song

From what I know of the community guidelines. THAT ALL COMMENTS MUST BE RESPECTFUL. AND NOT TO TARNISH GERARD BUTLER'S REPUTATION. HE IS ONE OF THE MANY GREAT ACTORS IN THIS WORLD! IN THERE SHOULD BE NO PHANTOM OF THE OPERA HATERS. HERE AT ALL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Amazing... what a wonderful peice. I was really blown away. The music and the Violins omg just amazing.

This song, movie or musical, is probably my favorite. There's just so much passion involved. Gerard does a fantastic job here in this song. I might be in the minority who think Gerard did a fairly decent job in this movie.

I love how he rolled his words. I would've said "F you Raul I'm his!"

It’s kind of funny watching Raul’s reaction to the phantom touching Christine 🤣 I love when he gets jealous and bothered

Both Gerard Butler and Emmy Rossum - such amazing, versatile talents AND beautiful faces. God blessed those two many times over - Gerard is also a lawyer.

Conspiracy Theory: The cape is a completely different actor.

This was beautiful and amazing until Christine ripped the mask off....

I cannot get over Christine's face at this part OMFG 0:28

I fell in love with the phantom he is great love his voice i would of stayed with him and dump the other guy

I love how everyone is like "HOT PASSIONATE SEDUCTIVE" and im like "while acting HE IS 35 AND SHE IS 16.... let that sink in"

I love this movi

All I wanna know is how nobody knew this man was not Piangi. No accent? Taller and Skinnier? This man ain't Piangi

A voz do Fantasma ( erik ) e extremamente linda e um encanto !

I sang this song for my audition for How To succeed in business without really trying in middle school years ago

I love phantom's action when he sais "silence".

I love this movie, but I can’t get over how the mask doesn’t cover his disfigurement. Not that it matters in this scene, since the disfigurement is not there...

Gerard, the SEXIEST Phantom ever❣️

God I love this song!

he's perfect for the part

No one: Background dancers: 🕺🕺🕺🕺💃💃💃💃

He is my favorite Phantom because of his raw sexuality. Nothing wrong with his voice, either!

Emmy rossum your one lucky gal,but damn she havin a hard time keepin her shoulder sleeves on ;)

Everyone talking about how sexy Gerard is here in this scene I’m just sitting thinking his mask isn’t fully covering his disfigurement

I have a crush on Phantom he is every Scorpio dream man 😍🥵

Phantom: You have come here In pursuit of your deepest urge In pursuit of that wish which till now Has been silent Silent I have brought you That our passions may fuse and merge In your mind you’ve already succumbed to me Dropped all defences, completely succumbed to me Now you are here with me, no second thoughts You’ve decided, decided Past the point of no return No backward glances Our games of make-believe are at an end Past all thought of if or when No use resisting Abandon thought and let the dream descend What raging fire shall flood the soul? What rich desire unlocks its door? What sweet seduction lies before us? Past the point of no return The final threshold What warm, unspoken secrets will we learn? Beyond the point of no return Christine: You have brought me To that moment when words run dry To that moment when speech disappears into silence Silence I have come here Hardly knowing the reason why In my mind I’ve already imagined our bodies entwining, defenceless and silent Now I am here with you, no second thoughts I’ve decided, decided

Christine in this scene always made me laugh, she’s like “Jesus Christ, not this guy, again” lol

This movie is one of the best movie in my childhood, so I bought the world tour ticket and few weeks ago, finally watched the original musical version. What I felt is... every songs in the musical are better than the one in the movie, except this song, -the point of no return.-

This man has no business being this fine😂

I am not going to lie i never seen this before but man i should've the Phantom is so hot

I read some of the comments below and must say, that Butler and Wilson did great in the movie. For people who want operatic singers, they should look to the play. I never saw the play, but love, love this movie. I never heard anyone sing like Emmy Rossum. She will blow you away!

I loved that movie! Gerard was so hot!

1:41 sir please grab ME like that

I don't know how others, but I thing Gerard Butler has beautiful voice. Imao it suits to Phantom.
