Another Copycat Film by Hackzelle

Rating: 1/10 (30 April 2017)

This film rips off from multiple films without ever getting remake rights: Umbrellas of Cherbourg, Young Girls of Rochefort, Moulin Rouge, An American in Paris, Singin' in the Rain, Tophat, Funny Faces, and many more. This is an atrocious work that I do not even consider art. I'll admit, it is entertaining and a decent copycat, but a copycat can never ever receive full credit. It instantly gets a 0/10 for being a dishonest and slimy piece of work. The plot goes like this: it is broken into four stages of time just like Umbrellas of Cherbourg. The girl and guy gets together, they go on dates, they end up having a conflict that separates them, and in the end they break apart. It goes over a two year time span to many years later where they meet again. It ends with a bitter sweet ending just like Umbrellas of Cherbourg. Mia gets pregnant like Genevieve. It's act to act, all structured, a complete copycat of Umbrellas of Cherbourg. This would be okay IF CHAZELLE BOUGHT THE RIGHTS, but there is no proof that he did. It's an embarrassing attempt at remaking with mediocre everything. Even I hated the smooth and standard cinematography. It rips off the visuals from Umbrellas of Cherbourg. The worst thing is, it rips off from 5 other films and then tries to paint it self as an original musical on the market. Such a shady director, he should be sued and imprisoned. I am boycotting anything Chazelle makes. An undeserving, non-talented director who is incapable of being creative.
A FAT 0/10.
