Review of La La Land (2016) by Juan H — 04 Mar 2017

Great story with a great cast and fantastic soundtrack. Normally I'm not even the biggest fan of musicals as movies, but Chazelle revisiting this genre is a welcome change - and it is so incredibly well done on every level! The cinematography, the choreography, the scope, and just the general overall fun-ness in bright colored costumes, sight and music makes it an easy must-see.

Looked forward to this movie since last summer from the first teaser (since I was a huge fan of Whiplash), but I expected this movie to go a little unnoticed - glad its getting the recognition it so rightly deserves.
