Gear up your dancing feet for this. |
La La Land Review – A rare musical jewel is
here to rescue us from the sea of superhero flicks.
Jump if you have watched La La Land. |
Mia (Emma Stone) is an aspiring actress
working at a coffee shop to pay the bills who stumbles upon Sebastian (Ryan
Gosling), a struggling jazz pianist. They strike an unlikely friendship that
turns them into lovers. Slowly but surely both finally find their footing in
their respective field but this cause them to drift further apart from each
other. With more fame and fortune come knocking at their door, can these two
love birds stay together or leave their love on the backseat?
Will Mia and Seb only have eyes for each other by the end of La La Land? |
Coming from the same Director that gave us
the Oscar nominated Whiplash not long ago, we are once again offered another
masterpiece of mixing story-telling with amazing music. The tunes are very ear
friendly that you will find yourself humming and moving your feet to it in no
time. It creates the good old days pleasant melodies while also capturing the
current music trend in its arrangement. The camera work is another splendid
feature moving flawlessly as if it is also dancing to its own steps. Of cause
all this is made possible by the pairing of quirky Emma and dashing Ryan.
Teaming up for the third time in a movie, this might be their own personal
achievement to graduate from Superbad and Mickey Mouse Club respectively. This
film will definitely take them to greater heights that they rightfully deserve.
A simple story told in a whimsical way is sure to score big at the box office
whilst having already collected heaps of awards so far. La La Land will surely
become one of the classic treasure for Hollywood to enjoy for years to come.
The perfect couple? |
Drop your comic book and grab your seat for
this delightful (although not all the way) silver screen gem.
