Sentiment: positive

Review: warmed over pastiche 
Sentiment: positive

Review: forbidden love , racial tension , and other issues that are as valid today as they were in the 1950s 
Sentiment: positive

Review: makes the same mistake as the music industry it criticizes , becoming so slick and watered-down it almost loses what made you love it in the first place 
Sentiment: negative
