I Don't Even Like Musicals and I Liked It

Rating: 9/10 (19 December 2016)

This is a normal review from a normal, average viewer of movies. I say this is non-biased because I don't rant and rave over musicals, nor do I actually enjoy them on a regular basis.
I went with my wife to see this movie on a date night. The opening scene was a traditional break into dance sequence that was kind of a turn off... but after that, the movie got better.
The acting was great, as Gosling and Stone are always good in their roles. Not to mention, their chemistry on screen was fantastic as always. They are just really believable as a couple.
The director couldn't have picked two better actors to portray the roles on screen.
There was quite a bit of singing and some dancing on screen but hearing it from Stone and Gosling made it believable. The music and score were enjoyable and the story itself was hard to beat.
So if you're someone who enjoys good acting and a great story, I would highly recommend it.
And if you're someone who doesn't typically enjoy musicals, I would still encourage you to check it out, especially if you're a guy looking to take your wife/gf to a nice flick.
You'd be silly not to take them to this movie, because it's a great story and has Ryan Gosling, she will be smiling for days.
I predict it will definitely win some awards come Oscar season.
