What the Flick?!

It is joyful. It leaps off the screen.

One Room With A View

A gorgeously photographed, unashamedly nostalgic, bittersweet marriage of the modern and the traditional, proving Chazelle's fantastic eye for musical sequences.

Rated: 5/5

With its candy-coated color palette and Emma Stone's earth-shattering performance, there's plenty of love found within La La Land.

InSession Film

Chazelle takes advantage of that vulnerability for the film’s surprising second half, and that’s when La La Land gets real.

PopMatters

The melancholy in this film's musical sequences serves as commentary on cinema's bygone capacity to produce a unique kind of magic.

Beyond the Cinerama Dome

This film is a celebration of “the fools who dream.” The world would be a much darker place without those fools.

Gary One thing about this movie is telling us is to Follow our Dreams 💫✊🏿🎞🎬❤ Rated 5/5 Stars • Rated 5 out of 5 stars 05/20/23 Full Review G An American Classic Love Story Rated 5/5 Stars • Rated 5 out of 5 stars 12/31/21 Full Review Katie D Definitely not what I was expecting! I love Emma and Ryan together but the storylines were a bit drawn out and disappointingly difficult to follow. Some of the musical numbers/dream sequences felt out of place and over the top, sending the audience out of La La Land. I did really like the jazz coming into a new generation and John Legend's music! This movie was really good but not not great. Rated 3.5/5 Stars • Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 03/15/21 Full Review Angela S It only took me eight years to watch this movie and to tell you the truth, 1:49:35-1:59:40 makes me want to die. Rated 5/5 Stars • Rated 5 out of 5 stars 08/02/24 Full Review freya n A rollercoaster of emotions! One of my all time favourite endings of a film to this day, which also left me completely devastated. This movie sticks with you. Rated 5/5 Stars • Rated 5 out of 5 stars 08/02/24 Full Review Vikes M I am not a big fan a musicals in general. However, this one is a well-done, complete, and deserves all of the praise it gets. Filmed in that classic Cinemascope flavor, and with stunning visuals and cinematography not only does this movie pop off the screen, but the story is one of the great tales played out to perfection. "Guy meets Girl" in Hollywood classic. For those that always want a happy ending, this is a true Hollywood ending, and it makes the movie. Aside from the people (like my wife) who found fault in the main character's simple dance moves ("He's no Fred Astaire", whatever that means) I could find no fault with this story, or how the actors portrayed their characters. I assume this one will continue to gain a loyal following for ages to come. Rated 4.5/5 Stars • Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 08/01/24 Full Review Read all reviews
