Boring.

Rating: 2/10 (15 June 2017)

I waited for the DVD and now I want to sell it. This musical was so boring. It is not a cinematic treasure or sun-drenched masterpiece. It is boring. The story is not a story really, just boring. Besides the lack of a story, the characters are boring. I like Ryan Gosling and Emma Stone in other roles but they were clearly out of their element in this musical. Simple fact: they cannot sing or dance. WTF? Plus the dance scenes are so pitiful, so short and so few it is a wonder they were featured in commercials. Did the two even try to learn to dance and sing? I long for the days of the musical film Chicago with Catherine Zeta-Jones and Renee Zellweger. Catherine is a singer and dancer but Renee wasn't but she learned and she did a good job. Even Richard Gere was a great pick for that film. Hollywood needs to find that casting director and hire them for the next musical.
