A beautiful movie that at first seems like a cheap fictional-band comedy.

Rating: 10/10 (2 July 2020)

I think my headline sums this movie up pretty good, but as a huge movie buff, I'd like to say a few things.
I usually don't like comedies about fictional bands, even though Eurovision is a real contest, but this was good. Her Smell is an exception, and this is another, but I usually don't like movies of the "Zoolander-type" (no offense to Zoolander).
Rachel McAdams was the best person they could've got for this role. I'm literally trying to think of someone else who could've done an alright job, but just can't. After I saw Game Night, I think I wrote in my review for that movie that I thought they should use McAdams in more funny roles (since she was great in that), so it was a nice little surprise seeing her in this.
The song for the contest is awesome. It's like "Never Enough" in The Greatest Showman.
The rest of the cast did an exceptional job as well, especially Pierce Brosnan and Will Farrell.
I didn't even know about this movie until the day it came out, oddly enough. Netflix should really have a section that shows just the AAA movies they added since your last visit, since that's all I'm really interested in (big budget, polished, unique, movies like this).
Along with Black Mirror, Unsolved Mysteries, and Disenchantment, and movies like this, Netflix has most of my favorite content now (HBO now comes in second place, in my mind -- they've been too hit-and-miss lately). At least when Netflix spends a lot on content, I usually love it.
