Eh.

Rating: 5/10 (1 January 2018)

Okay so, it was quite disappointing. My mother and I were compulsively waiting to see this movie. When we got to see it at home, we were like, really excited.
When the movie started, I liked it. A dancing scene like in the other movies. But as the movie went on, I actually started to doubt all those newspapers and news that said this was Oscar worthy.
Seb was constantly talking about Jazz, and that was quite annoying. He worked on something he didn't like, for 5 years (or more, if the movie went on), and kept telling himself it was his passion. Seriously? Then he picked on Mia because apparently "she liked him when he was worthless because that made him feel better". I didn't get it.
Then, for 5 years, they don't speak to each other even though if it wasn't because of Seb, Mia wasn't even an actress. How is that possible? "I will never stop loving you" Okay then, at least try to be friends? Not just stop speaking for 5 years or whatever, until they finally meet at the club Mia named, and both regret the choices they made in life. Good job.
And what was that at the ending? Just a simple nod? I think that what most disappointed me was the ending. I am a compulsive happy ending lover, and an ending when both girl and boy don't stay together, is basically a failure in history of cinema. But seriously, there were so bad things about the movie.
I of course liked the beggining. It was a "magical" relationship when both go out and explore, and dance and listen to Jazz the whole day. A true fairy tale. But Seb ruins it with his new job.
The musics aren't that good. I mean, the first song and "City of Stars" are basically the only songs that I liked. The others? I can't even remember them. The last scene, where Mia and Seb get to see what would've happened if they were different, was when I cried.
If you are going to make a musical, please insert a backstory, and if you want to win a few more smiles, include a happy and decent ending.
i feel like I've been tricked.
This wasn't the movie everyone spoke about, and everyone wanted to see.
This wasn't the movie I imagined.
Again, I think that what most disappointed me was the ending, as I like happy endings. In fact, I mostly like "boy and girl stay together" endings. I would see this movie again. But in like, 5 years. 5/!0.
