Review of Barracuda (2017) by Acacia — 04 Feb 2017

I really did not expect to enjoy this movie. So many people I know hated it. But, I have to say I loved it! From the opening sequence that shows people stuck in a traffic jam on the freeway getting out of their cars to dance and sing, I fell in love.

The movie is utterly charming and some parts are dreamlike. Of course, the singing is not up to a Broadway musical's standards, but you just have to love the music. It boils down to a romance between two people trying to make their mark in Hollywood and how it all effects them.

Emma Stone and Ryan Gosling are perfect in their roles, she an aspiring actress and he a musician who wants to make it in the big time. But, I have found that people either love this movie or they hate it.

I hope you love it.
