I could give it a 10, but it would have to be multiplied for each and every single thing on it that has a 10. If you can, go watch it right now, it deserves your attention

Rating: 10/10 (2 February 2017)

Movies about how great movies are. Only by that the viewer can already feel excited, and more, if it's well executed. This film is definitively the case. It's a musical, and a love story, but that doesn't keep it from shining. The film gives a perfect balance between the epic elements and the dramatic elements, while also having very good and clever comedic moments. Damien Chazelle has consecrated himself as one of the greatest, most influential contemporary directors, he will win every single accolade for it, because he deserves to. "Whiplash" was great, but certainly no masterpiece, "La La Land" surpasses the boundaries of what a masterpiece should be. The script is not being treated as good as the rest of the film, but I disagree, the script is powerful, deep, and compelling. The acting is top notch, and the musical numbers are exhilarating and exciting. Some people are unfortunately bashing on it, without any good or constructive explanations; yes, it's OK if you disagree from the objective perspective, but if you hate something just because it's nabbing all of the attention, you are being hypocritical; being jealous of something that's good in stratospheric levels will not prove any point. Some people are also not getting the ending. I'm not giving any potential spoilers, but the ending is not for everyone, but if you're lucky enough, like me or my parents and my sister, who saw it with me for the first time, and you get the idea and understand the subject, you'll get it, and you'll love it. It's been nominated for 14 Oscars, I wouldn't be surprised if it swipes them all, I would instead be surprised and very disgusted if it doesn't win at least the big five awards (Best Picture, both Leading Actor and Actress, Directing, and Screenplay). If you haven't go give "La La Land" a watch. I give it my highest grade and recommendation, it deserves that and much, much more.
