But... I... hate musicals???!

Rating: 10/10 (11 April 2019)

I really do hate musicals. As soon as people start singing and dancing in a series or movie, I turn it off. Never watched through any musical movie or even an episode in a series. It just feels so wrong and out of place. I hate musicals down to a molecular level! A musical must have killed me in a previous life or something, I cannot explain it.
But this... This is something else. Its a masterpiece. After a year of putting of seeing the movie, I could no longer deny the IMDB score 8.0 from 428000 people and the fact that this was also the writer and director of Whiplash (which I loved!), so I gave it a chance one evening.
I was awestruck.
My greatest regret is that I did not get to see it in the cinema with a large screen and with a great audio. But at the same time it might have been best, noone wants to see an adult man cry uncontrollably like a baby. Looking forward to Damien Chazelles next masterpiece.
