A Lavish Infomercial for Hollywood

Rating: 1/10 (25 February 2017)

Who's packing up their life and spending their last dime to head to the dying dream of Hollywood anymore?
This perverse recruitment film for the starstruck wannabe star/let was so far from the magic that once was there truly seems no way back from the travesty that has become the movie industry.
Reminiscent of hacked together 'B' movies that flood the foreign market with the western themed algorithm.
Cute boy meets cute girl, check. Personal conflict and trite inner turmoil, check. Struggle for success, check. Romantic poverty, check. Dream achieved but heartbroken, check. If only things had been different, check. Tear, smile, end scene, check, check.
When will casting directors ever learn? Don't cast a big name just for the name, especially for the small niche that is musical talent in Hollywood today.
The singing was difficult to listen to at times and the dancing... I, I just don't have the words.
Do yourself a favor and watch 'Crazy, Stupid, Love' instead, at least you get Steve Carell and some laughs.
