Additional note: Jenna Fischer from the Office plays Angourie Rice's mother in this movie and the two genuinely look like family, more so than any other mother and daughter I've ever seen in film. Very good casting there!
Wow this is turning out to be a very divisive film so far… I’ve seen a LOT of people on the internet who aren’t into musicals absolute despise it (some even walked out after 10 mins and there are tiktoks of audiences groaning and laughing everytime they break into song lol). On the other hand, LOTS of fans of the broadway show also didn’t like it and think it’s a bad adaptation… I’m guessing you just have to be somewhere in between lol (not a fan of the broadway and receptive to musicals). Glad you liked it tho!
