I recommend the movie if you're old enough, but as for the song, the cover that they use (which is apparently a cover of another cover) completely takes away what made the original great. The original was great because it was this sort of sarcastic piece where this carefree melody was placed on top of the narrative of a man facing the existential crisis of death. Instead, we have a broadway musical piece that tears down that sarcastic tone and doesn't even seem to care about what the song was about. Naturally, they would have to make a routine and visuals to match, so of course those aspects were never going to be good either.
