Is the movie sweeney todd a musical?

No, Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street is a musical that was written by Stephen Sondheim. Tim Burton made a movie version of this musical.To my knowledge, in an opera, all of the dialogue is sung. In a musical, the dialogue is spoken, but interrupted by various musical numbers. In other words, in an opera, they sing every word. In a musical, the dialogue is spoken, but the characters periodically launch into a song-and-dance.

Is phantom of the opera realistic?

Not technically. Technically speaking, both versions - film and stage - are not classical operas, they're musicals. (And even the literature/promotional materials refer to it as such, actually-) Traditionally, operas have little or no spoken words - all of the dialogue is sung. Musicals have numbers that represent conversations, advance the plotline, or serve some other major purpose... but they also contain "normal" theatrical spoken dialogue. It's close, though. The spoken dialogue really is at a minimum... but then again, music IS the soul of the entire plot, more or less, which makes it much easier to fuse the two.

An opera is a play set to music with props costumes scenery and lighting. It is usually peformed by an orchestra, soloists and chorus, whilst a play is just a drama, a story.
