“If La La Land were a person, it would be an eager-to-please, bright sunny person with very little going on behind the eyes. There’s loving nods and references to your idols and objects of obsession, and then there’s pure pastiche stitched together from the better parts of several famous movie musicals but without their emotional context. La La Land is a prime example of a charming time waster, an adequate movie musical that lacks any sense of depth that keeps something like Singin’ in the Rain vibrantly alive.

The images leave such a lasting impression that the familiar story becomes bigger, the backdrop that is LA seems magically fresh, and its also because of that one particular song called City of Stars that triggers all of t"
"Wow, just wow. A passionating movie, full of colors and dreams; Emma Stone is superb as Mia, and Gosling overflows charisma. Damien Chazelle can already figure between the great promises of Hollywood. Many people didn't like the ending, but that was what sold the movie for me. If it has any downsides (not being a 10/10), it's because the movie dosen't have memorable songs, and the big dance scenes are all in the first hour of the movie. "
