The director David Dobkin and crew brought a cute film with a lot of heart. The story is about two singers chasing their dreams to win the Eurovision contest. I keep re-watching the part at the beginning where they sing in the garage, loved it, and only the first seconds before he says Volcano Man, after this well its cheesy but before it's so powerful. I didn't felt this movie was aiming to get me to laugh but there were so many good humor lines. I like this kind of humor not too much and too little but it had too many cringe moments for my taste. The theme is clear as to always follow your dreams no matter what other people say. There were so many random moments in which were incredible making this film also kind of awkward in a very good way. The elves part was so adorable and fun, it made the story more magical. The song-along scene was the essence of this film, it gives the significance of unity.
The composer Atli Örvarsson brought sweet music and it goes well with this storyline because it keeps it honest and pure.
The cast was wonderful and it had two magnificent lead actors, Will Ferrell and Rachel McAdams. Will Ferrell was also one of the writers, he is among my favorite actors, I love how serious he acts in a comedic atmosphere. Rachel McAdams another favorite of mine was the heart of this film, her character had a lot of sweet innocence and it made her enchanting how I loved to watch her sing. Their connection was so delightful and beautiful. I can't forget about Dan Stevens and Melissanthi Mahut, the ones who gave the film its intensity and spark with their performances.
