Blah blah BLAND

Rating: 7/10 (8 January 2017)

La La Land is summed up in it's title, and is a direct reflection of celebrity obsessed America. It will rate highly with those who don't have a real job, are highly over-paid or the anti-deplorables (elitist gentrified sanctimonious city folk). It is bland, directionless scripted dribble with good actors playing bad parts, and acting badly.
Hollywood has lost its way, repeats of old ideas, a plethora of movies without real plots, without good scripts, having any real meaning or with mediocre TV learned method acting talent. Not all films have to be great films, everyone likes escapism at times, and we don't expect a Citizen Kane, a Godfather, or Blade runner all the time, however, what is criminal, is if we treat this film above its real status, which, unfortunately, appears to be the case based on its IMDb rating.
