[7.25/10] La La Land (2016)

La La Land (2016)

Quick Review: Delightful, uplifting, and splendidly surreal, "La La Land" may not be a musical perfection, but with all of the dancing, singing, and acting featured in its 'dreamy' story, it's surely a love letter to performing arts. Though set in the present, the creative use of color, saturation and light give the film an almost vintage feel with an appealing, mellow tone. Gosling, and especially Stone shine in their lively roles, but the emotive, complicated romance between them is the brighest star here.

Wish I liked musicals more. Most who've seen it really liked it.

Same here. I expected a lot more from this one, though.
