- ya'll know i had to do a la la land commentary & reaction vid to capture my first time watching this AMAZING film! so here's to the dreamers & the mess that they make... i guess i'll see you guys at the movies ❤︎ (& yes i'm officially stealing both of those lines forever lol)
hey guys! i hope you like this video. i can't believe it took me this long to watch la la land (& yes, okay, maybe i finally did it so i can watch the dylan is in trouble la la land commentary without getting spoiled, what else is a girl to do, you know?) but i genuinely enjoyed the movie & i hope you guys did, too!! 4 years late & all but that's fine 😂
but please let me know your thoughts in the comments down below!! do you like la la land? do you know what the color theory hip-hop-happenings are? do you have insight into the main faults of the movie?? WHY COULDN'T THEY HAVE JUST WAITED FOR EACH OF THEM TO ACHIEVE THEIR DREAMS SEPARATELY & THEN RECONNECT??? (that one will forever haunt me tbh) but i hope you guys liked this movie commentary! and are excited for whatever my next step is in learning final cut pro 😂 (i'm working on it!! the tv reactions might still be on iMovie for the time being, just so i can keep putting them out in a timely fashion, but i'm hoping all future movie commentary vids will be done in this manner!!!)
& as always, thanks for watching!! :)
also pls don't hate me pandering to the algorithm, but here's a lil weird paragraph so maybe hopefully this vid shows up in search if the YT gods are generous, lol:
this is a la la land commentary with a side of la la land reaction and a lil sprinkling of la la land analysis (yes yes i am technically an audience & this is technically a la la land audience reaction too although i guess not quite) but it's my first time watching la la land (god, yes, i know, idk HOW I'm only watching la la land for the first time in 2020 but i guess i live under a rock) but i really wanted to watch the dylan is in trouble la la land movie commentary video, so i hope you enjoy this movie reaction & la la land breakdown, with moments such as: the la la land audition song reaction! the la la land ending reaction! another day of sun la la land reaction! i mean, this movie has such good soundtrack, that la la land audition song broke my heart, and the la la land ending... well, it took my broken heart & tossed it in the trash tbh. so yeah, i hope you guys like this la la land movie reaction of the la la land first time reaction. cause dang, this movie is MAGICAL.
okay thanks for humoring me! i hope you guys enjoyed this video & i'll see you all for the shield reaction this weekend! :)
also, rights to the la la land clips belong to their respective owners, & definitely not to me, shoutout fair use!!

#LaLaLand #MovieCommentary #MovieReaction - บันเทิง
my life can now officially be split between "before la la land" & "after la la land" but hey guys! been working on this off/on for about a month in between the shield reactions, and i REALLY hope you like it! it's my first time using final cut pro & i hope it'll only get better from here! poll cards are up again for as long as YT lets them last, and, as always, thanks for watching!! i really appreciate it :')
Now I can see someone who felt the same after I watched it. A masterpiece!
@francisco soler please tell me i wasn't the only one sobbing!! 😂
Girl the editing was on point! Realy great for using new editing software! Also, I guess I'll go on and watch this movie now. You def made me want to watch it after avoiding it for years, so thanks so much for that!
Might I recommend the movie pans labryth? Lol its by Guillermo del torro
So happy to find someone else whose heart broke too! I still cry every time, even now after seeing it a gazillion times. The music and dance is beautiful. Ryan and Emma have amazing chemistry. The ending is soooo sad. I get it... But, still I want them to be together!
That final look still haunts me. My heart can only take so much.
YES. for real! those final two smiles? swords through my heart, honestly 😭
I think it’s insane to watch this heartbreaking movie 4 or 5 times! And as it was said before, that last look between them broke my heart in tons of pieces! Why?😢
I think the last 15 minutes or so of this movie are damn near PERFECT. From Mia's audition onwards I'm a blubbering wreck. The last look they give each other... I can't.
I just showed this movie to my boyfriend who is not a fan of musicals or romance stories, and he absolutely loved it. It absolutely wrecks me every time I watch it, "Here's to the Fools" makes me cry like a baby.
oh god, i was NOT prepared for how powerful & how painful that song was (or, actually, the entire movie, if we're honest) but i loved every bit of it! this soundtrack was on another level tbh. & that's awesome your bf loved it too!! i love how this film had something for everyone :')
fictionaldarling the soundtrack is amazing, and that song just hits me on another level, it feels so personal somehow, even if it isn’t exactly my story. So glad you finally got around to watching it 😊
I can totally relate to your boyfriend right now.
My ex also didn't like musicals or romance movies, and he was a huge movie buff. After i mentioned this was one of my favourite movies he agreed to watch it with me. He gave it a 3/10 and kept saying Mia cheated on the guy she was dating and the ending sucked because he thought it was unfair to the husband... Needless to say we broke up shortly after.
"Did this win an oscar?" Well it should have. I loved that they chose to end this story with them not together but still finding success and happiness. Also Tree (Jessica Rothe) from Happy Death Day is one of Mia's roommates and that's just one of those things I can't unsee.
oh i didn't even realize that one of the roommates was jessica rothe! between this & valley girl, i seriously need to go watch death day now 😂 & i totally agree, i love those bittersweet endings where the romance doesn't necessarily work out but the two characters have grown for the better throughout. (now it makes sense why they were recommending before we go at the end 😂) i'm glad they both were able to find their success, though. that's honestly more fulfilling than just the two of them getting together, in my opinion!
This was one of those years where a movie that was both critically acclaimed and actually seen by many theater goes was beat out by another critically acclaimed movie that not many people saw. I still haven't seen the movie that actually won the Oscar. Moonlight.
@@fabianhebestreit3240 I can't stand moonlight
@@maximusaurelius9906 Moonlight is a brilliant movie, it 100% deserved the oscar over La La Land. I loved La La Land, don't get me wrong. But Moonlight is a more unique, more important, more brave movie and deserved the win.
@@baguettegott3409 Maybe it is, but the trailer simply didn't grab my attention and I don't watch movies or tv based on award nominations or wins. I know that basically nobody was willing to pay to go see it in theaters, which does not necessarily make it a bad movie, but does indicate a lack of enthusiasm and/or interest. I've enjoyed other movies and shows Mahershala Ali has been a part of, but I can't say for sure if he was the key factor in my enjoyment of those projects, with perhaps the exception of his season of True Detective and Green Book.
I was actually surprised how much I liked this movie when I saw it. I'm not much of a musical fan but the story they told and the acting of Gosling and Stone was awesome. It was like a happy and sad ending both wrap into one. Also, you're a girl so feel okay telling you I teared up, keep it on the down low. 👍😂😂
oh don't worry, ya'll just watched me sob for practically 10 minutes straight 😂 (honestly is there anyone who didn't cry while watching it? that's the question 😂) but yes!! i wasn't expecting to like it this much, either. i knew it was a musical, but man, i didn't know how powerful it was going to be!!
You ain’t the only one bro 😂😭 I usually dislike most musicals but La La Land alone I just one of my favorite movies
@@Edwondolowski it's become one of my favorites too, to my surprise.
I have seen this so many times and never noticed her roommates were at her show... I feel so dumb
no!! don't feel dumb!! i feel like there's definitely so much i missed, honestly... i already need to rewatch it, lol
@@fictionaldarling it is definitely worth the rewatch! I typically don't like rewatching "super deep" movies because they are so emotionally exhausting, but rewatching La La Land is such a joy
4 years old but still the songs hit different.
the most magnificent melancholic last 10 minutes of a movie I have ever seen and the music!!!...I would never forget....stuck in my head for couple of days and then it goes...and come back again when I go over the clips & music again
i’m glad someone else had the same reaction as me. la la land is my favorite movie
This film is a masterpiece and has the effect of drawing you back into another viewing every so often despite knowing the somewhat heartbreaking emotion it evokes. I suspect that many who've seen it find the emotional arc somewhat familiar and that others that don't, long for the chance just to have the opportunity to experience such a relationship, perhaps thinking, hoping and dreaming that their outcome will be just a little bit closer to a fairytale Hollywood ending.
I thought it was just another oscar bait movie back when it came out. Was happily surprised when someone finally convinced me to watch it
i can definitely see how it looks like an oscar bait, though. but it ended up so much better than i was expecting!!
This is one of my absolute favorite musicals!!! I know all the songs by heart and still play them even 4 yrs later in my car. I remember i went to see this 3 times at the theater when it come out 🥰. I love how much you liked it! Just found ur channel and subbed ☺️
You got everything exactly right except that at the "alternative ending" they did achieve their dreams, he still opened a Jazz club in Paris and she still became a movie star, everything worked out except the decisions they made were slightly different in the fantasy and they kept their relationship going. That was not a realistic scenario anyway, but it's still heartbreaking. A beautiful reaction to a beautiful movie.
I loved this movie as well! in fact, I saw in the theaters four times... it broke my heart too... this movie makes you think of your life's choices and 'what could have been'.... I like to think I'm a 'man's man', and I cried each time I saw this...
it's great to see them both finally finding that thing that've been searching for their whole life and getting to be artistic for a living. just sucks how they couldn't be together. that look they had at the end, it felt so real and just very bittersweet
I interpreted the opening scene as people come out here to L.A (SoCal in general) because of the allure of "making it big" in the entertainment industry...they're super excited and giddy with only the accomplishment of landing in L.A on their resume...but the reality is they're no different than the billions of people (I assume) that have come before them, and eventually will not become the next Bradley Cooper or Jennifer Lawrence, in the meanwhile clogging up the on-ramp from the 110 South to the 105 West.
you first reaction was literally every reaction i have watching this movie,i swear!
i watched la la land 20 times(welp)
and wanting to be an actor or artist this movie hits 10x more
I loved your reaction. It’s my favorite movie. Loved everything about it.
Just did a rewatch of this reaction: still absolutely perfect. Amazing movie, and seeing you fall in love with it reminds me of my first viewing in the theater. His nod to her at the end . . . can something be heartbreaking and heartwarming at the same time?
I bawled my eyes out at the ending. Such a beautiful, heartbreaking story of love, passion, determination and artistic sacrifice.
I first watched this movie in 2019 and for some reason I didn’t get it. I love musicals and acting, this film should’ve spoken to me right then and there. I finally gave it another chance a few months back and it hit me like a ton of bricks. I think the difference is that around the same time as I finally decided to watch it again, I met a girl that I honestly thought was my soulmate. It legitimately felt like it was straight out of this movie. That’s the fairy tale, something this movie does a great job of portraying with the planetarium scene and summer montage. Unfortunately, I came to the realization that, while I love this girl and have never had such a strong connection with anyone else in my life, we both have entirely different ideas for where our future takes us. I long to settle down, get married, and start a family. She isn’t sure what she wants, but she knows it isn’t that. That’s the reality. The scene outside the observatory at day. The last look back after picturing the life we could have had. No film has ever spoken to me on the deep personal level that La La Land has, and I don’t think any other film will come close.
9:55 he does have the money now, time jumps quite a lot in this but I’m sure you know that now haha
Perfect analysis both their dreams were too big and in two different directions for both to reach while together
Fun commentary. If you haven’t seen it already, I highly highly recommend John Carney’s ‘Once’ (2007). It’s a smaller scale, kinda realistic musical, but has some great music in it. Honestly it’s one of my favorite musicals ever, so definitely check it out if you get the time!
thank you!! i haven't seen that yet, but i'll definitely have to check it out, because i always love a good musical! also how do you know so many perfect movie recs for every occasion?? it's literally amazing!! i'm jealous of your film knowledge 🙌
@@fictionaldarling Haha thanks, It probably has to do with being fairly introverted throughout school, and just wanting to see as much as possible lol. Another recommendation I have was actually an inspiration for La la Land, The Umbrellas of Cherbourg, a French musical where they sing all the dialogue. It's a little weird at first but you get used to it after the first ten minutes. Btw, I was surprised you said you were from Florida, I guess I assumed you were from New York.
haha, no, i wish 🙈 i've been to nyc approximately two & a half times in my entire life & i'll be milking those trip photos until the day i die 😂 (or, you know, hopefully get there again, depending on this whole pandemic) but that's awesome!! i'm sorely behind in the film world & desperately trying to catch up, lol. it's so cool you've seen & know so many!! i don't think i could even do that 30 day film challenge you've been doing on insta, you keep pulling out films i've never even heard about! i'll add that french musical to my list, too, i'm very down to see what an all-singing musical looks like 😂 thank you!!
@@fictionaldarling There are so many more I want to see. The thing is with movies, tv shows, books, etc. is that the more you learn about them, the more there is to see. So I feel like I'll never finish every movie that'll be on my watchlists (especially with something like Steven Schneider's 1001 movies to see before you die (updated to 1222 now)). But I totally get milking those trips! I went to New York for a couple days about 3 1/2 years ago and it was one of my favorite experiences. There was so much I didn't see while I was there, like Central Park; however I did get to meet Nick Kroll, John Mulaney (for a split second), and a handful of people from SNL while I was there. So that's what I milk the most.
"Once" is such lovely small budget musical movie. It is so authentic and one of the most memorable movie I have watched.
"Did that win an Oscar?" is the best line.
hi! 👋🏻 saw your comment on Annie Dubés video and decided to come on by! Awesome content! Keep crushing it ❤️!
This is my favorite reaction!!
Btw. That Girl’s dress flew at the opening cause of the wind, its all accidental and they took all the shots in one take (all dance in this movie are one take)
Easily my favourite film of all time
Same
willJd11 I love thus movie and should have won Best Picture, I watched Moonlight and boyhood was way better.
@@martinpalmers9061 would you be intrseted in seeing my stage version of the film? I directed it for my college final, want to do it again
Same!!!!
best reaction video ever
In musicals we see songs, but for them its really just normal scenes playing through, often times the song just makes it more emotional and easier to connect with for the audience.
Yo I've never made the connection of "I've never been here during the day" with that they're not dreaming anymore/at night.
Thank you for recognizing that John Legend's character dropped the truth to Sebastian. Because he's not wrong. If you want jazz to survive, you have to let it evolve. That's the truth about music as a whole. Pure jazz is beautiful, so Seb's love for it is more than justified. But it's not gonna reach everyone. When you give the new generation it's rendition of jazz, you've given them the keys to vault to, potentially, look at jazz in the past to see how it got to where it is now. But you have to get their attention first.
Part of the culture of jazz musicians (and other styles of music) is learning things by ear. And it’s just a skill you need to have in order to play with a band. You need to know where the chords are progressing when you or the other people in your band are taking turns improvising.
That was fun! I enjoyed your reaction
As someone who ultimately rejected a true love/right person, after realizing I didn’t have to settle and I could find someone better - I’m so glad God lead me through the pain and devastation to meet another man who eleven years later is now my best friend and my husband Frank. :) I wish the ex-beau from Africa well and I thank him for setting me free to find my blessing Frank. :) This movie had the best ending because Mia did the same as I and showed you can love someone truly and still move onto better. :)
I enjoyed this reaction so much. Thank you
I have no excuse either. I just watched it for the first--and certainly not the last--time last week. And I loved it!
The end is sad and beautiful, a great movie.
the fact that La La Land did not win Best Picture is a travesty. I didn't see the one that did - my wife did, and she said it was odd. give me entertainment!
I felt that Moonlight was aimed to a particular audience with its progressive themes while La La Land's message of pursuing dreams with sacrifice is universal and easily relatable to anyone.
Just watched this movie with my wife tonight. Fantastic. Your reaction ... fantastic!! Thank you so much for sharing.
was expecting you to give us ur reaction to city of stars
My boyfriend don't like the musicals, but he love la la land, and in the last scene he cry with me :'3 and told me "i understand now why you like this movie, Is not just another musical"
I think the most powerful thing about this movie, is something that is beneath what everyone talks about, being that they accomplished their dreams. The point of the movie is perfectly accentuated by the glimpse of what their life could have been, and how close they sat together and they were smiling, and that wasn't even enough so they get closer and kiss. And then cut to reality, everyone has a grimace on their face, and she is physically separated by a good distance from her actual husband. The only difference between what could have been and what is, is happiness without attained goals, and misery with goals achieved. They accomplish their dreams yes, but at the cost of true happiness. Accomplishing your dreams doesn't make you happy, simple joys and trials in love make you happy. And this movie serves as a beautiful tragedy to teach us the lesson so that we don't have to learn the hard way! It's fantastic.
i still cant move on from this movie.
the "look at each other" at the end of the movie break me into pieces.
I love your hair style 👍 your commentary is the best❤
I just watched it and knew from the first time that it was gonna end bittersweet. The tone of the song gives that impression. I also knew that it was gonna end like that, it made me cry so much. 😭😭😭
OMG I love your reaction, that 15:25 I said exactly the same when I saw it 😂😂
I would definitely recommend Whiplash if you haven't watched that one
Best reaction to this movie. Thank you
People do talk about the sun a lot here, but we're not that happy, because that traffic is real! 🤣
I know I'm super late to the party, but I only found your channel because of Wandavision, so here I am now. And I just have to say, this movie is every bit as deserving of the love you gave it. After the Oscars, people kinda woke up from the collective "La La Land is going to win EVERYTHING!" fever dream and accepted, yeah, Moonlight was the better movie and it deserved the Oscar, and then the La La Land backlash set in. But even so, that doesn't make this any less wonderful. And as someone who DOES live in LA and who has been to every single location used for this movie, I can confirm we do dance randomly in the streets, and I don't give a single damn who sees my underwear.
On a somewhat deeper level, probably my favorite thing about this movie is how it becomes an entirely different movie halfway through. In the first half of the movie, all the songs are non-diegetic, in the style of more classic musicals. Music is magic, life and dreams are one and the same. And it all peaks beautifully in the Planetarium dance sequence, which ends in a classic iris-out to mark the end of the movie, like a Rodgers & Hammerstein musical. From that point on, the rest of the music is entirely diegetic, in the style favored by more modern musicals like Once, Sing, Coco, and A Star Is Born (2018). We see the fusion jazz concert, the piano scene, the engagement party, all sans-magic. And it leads up to Audition, which strangely, we actually can't tell if the singing is diegetic or not. Is she singing in the audition, or is she imagining the song as she speaks the story, or... are we somewhere in between? Hell of a question, especially when you consider the role Sebastian played and the ending they didn't have.
When i saw you crying in the part with her old room, I was like "just wait for the end"
Lol exactly
The Audition is.. my god.. such a tearjerker of a song. Even more if you are an artist and can relate to what the song's about. I've seen this movie about 4 times so far and it's gotten better each time. I am so glad that you've finally seen it. Now go watch it again.
oh my god. i was an absolute wreck when i first watched this. this is one of those movies that i've only watched once, but it's ingrained in my mind because it was just too painful.
Bro I thought I was the only one that cried cause my friends watched it and they said they didn't cry
Ohhh myy, wonderful reaction! You should watch Call Me by Your Name if you like emotional, bittersweet movies
I really love this movie.. im thankful im born to this era and watched it on Big screen and it’s so Magical ❤️ one of the best film I’ve ever watched in my whole life.
Here to the fool who dreams wrecked me so bad 💔
Specially that ending is still burning my heart to sadness until now
she got divorced, took custody of her daughter, went after sebastian, they got married, stayed together and had the son of their dreams. My ending is this and that's what happened.
Can you do moulin rouge reaction
I just realised that i drink with the arm up, just like him.
I don't know why this is bothering me or even why this bothers HER so much
I had the same reaction to this movie the first time I watched it and I cannot recommend it enough!🍿😭☝🏼
i like that this is my second time watching your reaction lol
i dont even rly know piano but i know how to play mia and sebastians theme and it makes me cry lol
I don't play the piano too, but I bought one just to play that piece. Took me a week to learn it and now I can play it anytime just to make myself sad😂😞
oh my god it’s 2 am and i have school tomorrow. WHY CANT I STOP WATCHING YOUR VIDEOSSSS
😭😭😭 omg!!! this comment means SO MUCH ahhh!! good luck at school though!!! (or i guess i hope you have a great weekend, since i'm replying kinda late, oops 😅)
I love it, its my favorite movie
The finale is so beautiful. We see the what could have been. Then we see what happend. We see how succsessfull both seb and mia are and the question was it worth it kinda shows itself. Finally seb and mia nod to eachother. A final i love you and im proud of you.
I feel like the beginning is showing the optimism of people arriving in Los Angeles, fueled by the opportunities they believe they will get there, rather than what the city is really like.
I cried non-stop the last 20 minutes too 😂😂😂
the guy who said the truth bomb is john legend
I wish I could watch this for the first time once more😔
14:01 Same! way back when I saw it in theaters, as one growing up "knowing for a fact" I'd be an actor, this movie is so good.
16:34 Yes, this movie is that good
17:09 Indeed
Thanks for posting this. I did not see this when it came out either. I Saw it about the same time you did this video. Like many, pandemic life brought a lot of movies and shows into my life that I had skipped or would have skipped. My apprehension with this movie had to do with being a huge fan of vintage movie musicals and buying into the criticism and not wanting to be disappointed. Basically I wanted it to be good, but was afraid it was bad, so never gave it a chance. I know, lousy excuse not to watch some thing. I ended up a captive audience when my cousin put it on to rewatch and I absolutely loved it ❤️🎶. I was in about the same shape you were at the end. Probably meant to be as I think I would not have been in the right mind set four years ago either. Most romantic movie musicals would give us the big kiss ending of Singing in the Rain, but additionally loved how this movie brought the Fantasy and Reality of costs to chasing your dreams. 👍🎶💃🏻🕺🏻
fictionaldarling: "Did this film win an Oscar?"
Me: funny you should ask . . .
Great reaction, heartfelt and genuine, this movie crushed me, too.
LA weather is best in the world, but it can be a soul crushing place unless you have a passion and are talented. Even then you need to have an ego the size of Greenland or a social outlook of a saint to survive there. Because no matter how happy and good you are, most people are better than you and judge you to death to build their confidence that they might have a chance to be happy there.
nooo i never saw someone cry like that for this movie also "did it win any oscars?"
I hate musicals and LOVE this film.
the actors knew it was just a story.. but I as a man, Sebastian, be strong 😭😭😭
1:02 YOU KNOW DAREDEVIL TOO OMG? my boy T.T best marvel character ever
I learn through audio because I can't figure out how to read sheet music, I know where one of the gs are but not what key that corresponds to or where any other note is
Once again, Emma Stone and Ryan Goslings' chemistry shows when they are in a movie together, a big movie is coming. Plus, the writing was so perfect and "what could have been if" moment was even more better. You said that some people think there might be some misperception or some mistakes on the movie but i totally disagree with this. Only a true movie lover can really enjoy the story of this movie 💕
Honestly, la la land is better than moonlight
I know right?
It's like comparing an apple to an orange.
When I was in theatre in high school my friends told me to watch this movie and preform the songs to get more comfortable with doing musicals. It’s been my favorite movie ever since. 😊
The opening song is on tiktok
love ya.. i feel exactly like you do =)
Come to Spain, we have Sun and same energy like La La Land opening dancers.
💃 You can see the flamenco dancer in the jam scene 🤗
Greetings from Madrid 🇪🇸 by La La Land fan! I hope see you soon!
Loved your reaction to this. Yes it was robbed of an Oscar. Moonlight was a good film, but when Ali leaves the screen at the half way mark the film dies. There is also criticism of this film for "White person" trying to save jazz. Yes he said that but he was just being goofy. Remember his character is passionate yet a bit goofy. He wanted to really just open up a jazz club and show non- followers how good jazz is. And by the way good jazz is not just done by black people..see Harry Connick Jr.
Not my favorite movie of that year, but definitely the most fun one - also, the best attempt so far to make an old-fashioned Hollywood musical with some modern twists on it. Saw this three times in theaters (first on my own, then with different friends).
please the movie ONE DAY please
Just wait till you see Moonlight!
Idk if you saw when you were looking up Oscar stuff, but La La Land was nominated for 14 awards, tying with All Above Eve and Titanic for the record. It won Best Production Design, Best Cinematography, Best Original Score, Best Original Song (City of Stars), Best Actress (Emma Stone) and Best Director. It was up for, but didn’t win, Best Film Editing, Best Costume Design, Best Original Song (Audition: The Fools Who Dream), Best Sound Editing, Best Sound Mixing, Best Original Screenplay, Best Actor (Ryan Gosling), and of course Best Picture. ❤️
Did it win the Best Picture, you ask? For a few minutes, La La Land was believed to have landed the big happy ending, only for the harsh reality to take that fairy tale away. That's low key fate's punishment for making us go through the same emotion in the last section of the movie.
Have you seen the Florida Project?
I love this movie! You should check out the French musical that was a HUGE influence to this film in color, time lapse, and conclusion: The Umbrellas of Cherbourg. (th-cam.com/video/imCOi7pqKh0/w-d-xo.html)
However, as much as I love it, I do agree that Moonlight deserved the Oscar over this film.
People will always find fault in film or art in general, even if it's a masterpiece. From my observation, the haters of this film fall into two broad categories: (1) people with narrow taste & dogmatic political views and (2) people who have the attention span of a gnat. For #1, these guys/gals will hate anything without some far left wing underlying political message. La La Land was very apolitical (which is pretty rare in film these days), thus, it didn't pass their test. For #2, if it's not action packed with explosions, they bore easily.
People movie to LA to be discovered. People movie to Florida to die!!! I'll just say this about some people dishing this. When a movie becomes so popular the some pretentious people will hate it. This happened to Titanic. "I've heard this..OMG...I can't believe people like this movie".
now watch Manchester by the sea. u will need a lot of toilet paper for that movie.
remember when 2016 was the worst year
