La La Land of Extremes

Rating: 7/10 (25 April 2018)

I liked La La Land. A throwback to movies about people, relationships and the serendipity that leads to relationships. As I read the reviews of others though it seems like people either were enraptured with love or possessed of hate towards it. I see this in may other reviews on the site. This was not the best movie I've ever seen but I like to see a movie like this once in a while that takes us back to an earlier time. Sentimental, yes. But I like how the movie lifted the viewer into this fantasy where the shallow world of Hollywood meets the simple, sweetness of two people in love. The music and dance added to the overall sense of fun and helped portray the ups and downs of a blossoming relationship. Wait for the right mood... be open and ready for a sweet story and you'll like La La Land.
