HO HUM !! SING ME to sleep

Rating: 5/10 (25 January 2017)

I liked it but thought it pretentious and all things American, It was light on plot but I did like the chemistry between Emma stone and lead guy!! I really would not take my friends to see it as it is too over the top. Great performances but not worth all the Oscar buzz. Modern day musical and great screen sets. Where is the plot? , I mean there is one but too thinly veiled to make it Oscar nominations. I saw "Lion" now that film deserves the awards. "La La land" is a good title for it is mediocre and full of itself. But not all bad, I went on my own and think I enjoyed it because we Aussies would be embarrassed to see this and have discussions on the deep and meaningful thoughts of this movie. So go for it, it either a like it or hate it.
