Beautiful musical and a declaration of love for the “MOVIE” itself. Absolutely deserved 6 Oscars, in my opinion it should have won Best Picture too, well, the envelope was swapped...AWESOME, BRAVO, BRAVO, BRAVO! A MUST SEE!

Despite initial concerns, the musical elements of the film are seamlessly integrated into the story, allowing it to develop organically. Damien Chazelle's direction is masterful, evoking memories of the past while maintaining a modern feel. The lead actors, Ryan Gosling and Emma Stone, have undeniable chemistry, and their performances are both effortless and captivating. The film is a feast for the eyes, with Chazelle's use of color and camera movement adding to the overall beauty of the film. The story is engaging and serves as a more captivating watch than the routines. Despite some simplistic elements, the film is a triumph, celebrating all that was great before and wrapping it up in a modern-day bow. Magnificent.

Emma Stone shined like a diamond in this film, combining the best of her acting, gorgeous looks, and charming character. I could not have picked a better couple for this film than Emma Stone and Ryan Gosling. Their performance together took my heart to far-away galaxies a hundred times over, and still left me hungry for more! The sheer power of a Steinway and Sons Piano and the soothing, nostalgic sounds it makes, takes this film's power of emotion to a whole other level. The filming was excellent combined with the dancing, music, and setting of each scene. All of it combined made for a mind-blowing romance which deserves all the praise it has received from the hungry critics. Two thumbs way up.… Expand

God this movie makes every virgin truly feel like one. The movie wants to teach you how to love love and yet you start to resent it. The film is truly a technical perfection. Camera, light, colour, sound and effects. The soundtrack (original) is the best of any movie I’ve ever watched. From the theme song to the obscure background tracks. The music is a turn on fr fr. The characters themselves are anything but bland. The audience is invested in their story. Mia and Seb are only that great because of the on-screen chemistry between Emma Stone and Ryan Gosling. Love, hate, laughter, sadness carry the movie through the challenging streets of Los Angeles. I love that the movie gave an alternate ending for the basic **** watching it and it being heartwarming for them. But, the true ending which is so synonymous to real life is also shown for us filmbros and cinephiles. Damien Chazelle is a master of his craft. So if you’re in the mood for love tonight, watch it.… Expand

There are some segments that don’t stick as well as I’d like, but I was going through a cruddy period in my life and honestly couldn't complain too much. I love that the film subverts an expectation of a happily ever after, but goes for a more realistic ending for our beloved characters rather than the fantastical ending so many older movies were famous and loved for.

The only negatives which I had with this movie would be some of the dialogue an hour in or so with Sebastian and Mia, It honestly felt a bit forced to me and the ending wasn't what I was expecting which was a bit sad. Overall, I really enjoyed this movie more than I expected to, its honestly worth the watch.

I felt that the world had paused, it hit me hard with the brilliant ending sequence. I've since seen La La Land 3 more times and each time it still affects me emotionally, Damien Chazelle has done it again. I had no idea he directed this and Whiplash when I had first seen this, but I was a huge fan of Whiplash as another movie that affected me emotionally.

La La Land

Chazelle is on a strike. With successive jaw dropping projects coming out, his passion grows more intense and the cinema much larger. Coloring the 70mm screen with rich mesmeric visuals, the director, Damien Chazelle is boasting his love with proper understanding of the Hollywood culture that he so blindingly adores. Not an inch goes by in the film that looks pretentious, working over a year on editing along with Tom Cross, Chazelle wishes you to understand the "if's" and "but's" of this show business in one note. And boy what a note it is. I am sorry but that hooked theme of Justin Hurwitz, whispered in every line of the film always sobers me up.

All hail the production team for carving out this desert as fresh as it looks, from clothes to designing and from locations to set pieces, the view gets better and better and so does the performance. And daunting as this task may sound, but Emma Stone and Ryan Gosling might be the new Woody Allen and Diane Keaton. But unlike them they aren't quirky but are goofy about the relationship and flirty about their first love. If Stone going over the montages of failed auditions is a threat, then Gosling on piano is her equal competitor.

I have always preferred them alone, one is happy being stubborn and intuitive- something that she later on adapts from him- and other being mature and hard on herself. Together, they would fall apart, they are meant to be, no matter how in sync are they while dancing and how pitch perfect are they while singing, their rhythm is too vacuumed by the outer world to float in one room, maybe they should have just stayed in that cinema hall, but despite of claiming it to be a La La Land, this is the reality, they had to get out.… Expand

The 4-season metaphor was remarkably meaningful looking back at the movie. The idea that life happens in seasons is powerful, and that sometimes great things come to an end. The cute couple doesn't always end up together.
The music was the best I've ever heard. As I watched the opening scene play before me, I was inspired by their choreography and musical complexity. I was instantly entranced in the mood of the movie. La La Land takes a well-paced approach to the idea of Hollywood and shows the biting realism of life.
Overall, the movie mixes musical and instrumental prowess with skilled performances from Emma Stone and Ryan Gosling to make a film that felt more real than any I've watched before.… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. From the talented director of Whiplash, comes another musical masterpiece: La La Land. This movie is about the romance of aspiring actress Mia (Emma Stone) and Sebastian (Ryan Gosling), they both have great chemistry and they're one of the best movie couples in recent cinema, director Damien Chazelle had the talent to write and develop their relationship really well. As this is a musical, it obviously has many musical numbers throughout the movie and they're all fantastic and serve a purpose to the plot.

The Good:
-The performances are amazing.
-The script, dialogue and character development are great. The chemistry between the main characters is just wonderful.
-The score and music is memorable and beautiful.
-The ending scene is one of the best ending scenes I've seen in a long time and the message it tries to give is sad but true: That sometimes couples need to separate and both go in different ways to accomplish their dreams. It's a lighthearted, depressing yet satisfying ending and it's more tearjerking with the beautiful music, the last shot of the movie is Mia and Seb smiling to each other is an amazing ending, pretty refreshing to see a couple actually not ending together, it makes the ending unpredictable.
-Obviously the rest of the movie is as amazing as that last scene. The musical numbers are memorable, catchy and well choreographed.

The Bad:
-I think the only "bad" or not so good thing is Ryan Gosling's acting as Sebastian. He did a good job but he didn't really shine as much as other actors, specially his in-movie couple Mia (Emma Stone).

La La Land is a masterpiece of a movie, I could watch it over and over and nothing of it will ever get old at least for me.… Expand

I'm normally not a fan of musicals but I am a fan of this one. Gosling and Stone do a fantastic job and the journey their characters go through perfectly blends with the music. IMO, This should have won best picture over Moonlight.

Para comenzar la banda sonora es increible las canciones nos cuentan puntos de la trama y no solo eso los colores son vivos y hacen que una escena se vea genial de verdad los diseños del escenario me gustaron mas que los de avatar. Esta forma de narrativa tambien tiene sus defectos porque si quieres transmitir emociones profundas o tristes no se lograra del todo puesto que el sonido ritmico y el escenario colorido de la pelicula te dira todo los contrario y aunque la iluminacion es bastante buena en otras escenas se pudo mejorar. En el resto de puntos la pelicula es muy simple la trama, el guion y movimiento de camara, se lleva un 11 de 10 en banda sonora y escenarios pero el resto es normal para una pelicula que toma mucha fuerza con lo ya antes mencionado.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I freaking love this movie from beginning to end. It's such a feel-good movie. When i watched i for a second time, i could sing along with all the songs, which are great as well. Every song stands out. The story is maybe not that Original: girl meets guy, fall in love, be in a relationship, break up. But it was put in another 'jacket' as i would say, which made the movie a whole new experience. Acting is great. You'll be smiling from minute one with the Original intro with 'Another day of sun' sung by a whole bunch of dancers dancing on the freeway. It ends a bit more sad, with the broken up couple looking back to the movie with some happy and sad music.
Great experience, if you didn't liked it the first time, be sure to give it a second try, changes your perspective and gives you a better look at the movie and its characters.
On of my all time favorites for sure.… Expand

It is not flawless, but it looks and sounds great. Kudos to Damien Chazelle for taking a moribund genre (the Hollywood musical), updating it for the 2010s, and giving it new life. Gosling and Stone, who are great together, play a couple of struggling artists (he, a disgruntled jazz musician, and she, an actress) who meet and fall in love. Parts of Los Angeles become key features in the movie and serve as wonderful backdrops for musical numbers. The ending for me is a little unsatisfying, and it left me scratching my head over what really happened between them, which isn't the best way to end a romantic musical - but this is still a lovely ride, and one with no peers that I know of.… Expand

It includes impeccably choreographed dancing, great songs and an excellent score, along with excellent performances from Ryan Gosling and Emma Stone. Chazelle's direction is very assured and the movie has excellent cinematography. It's visuals and excellent musical numbers allude to classic musicals with an upbeat, and dream-like tone. The movie can be interpreted in several ways, but for a less discerning viewer the subtle message of being willing to let go with each other to follow your dreams could be missed, if so i recommend a second viewing. Both Mia and Sebastian achieve their dreams but the movie shows a beautiful and heartbreaking montage of what could have been if their relationship was perfect. But the whimsical tone is contrasted with raw emotion and shows the reality of going to L.A. to achieve your dreams. La La Land was the best movie of 2016 and must be seen. I watched La La Land recently, my expectations weren't that high, I was expecting a good movie, but not a masterpiece on the level of this film. La La Land is an instant classic.… Expand

I recently watched a movie called "La La Land: California Dreams" again. For the first time, I saw this movie in the cinema last year when we went to see it with classmates. The genre of the film is a musical romantic, comedy and drama film, and the film was released on August 31, 2016. The film employ and location is in California. In the same year, the film also nominated for the Oscars.
Actress Mia tries to play a famous play where she wants to take part. She will work in the breakfast cafe otherwise there is a waitress. Because she has a sad mood the same evening, then she will have a restaurant in the evening and a muscian Sebastian, whom she will soon fall in love, will play the piano. The same night, Sebastian was fired from work, as the restaurant manager wanted to put his restaurant around for a band to listen to people. Sebastian goes to work on one of the record labels, and Mia begins to create her own play. The film employ is very fast-moving. At the end of the film, they admit to each other that while they care about each other, they will not be able to live together in the future.
It seemed to me that the film is light-hearted and there were different twists and turns in the film. There were a lot of different details and effects in the film that changed the film´s environment. This film had a big-budget, but it is a world-famous piece of musical.
My opinion about the film is very good, because people dance and sing a lot, and this make the movie a great one. I recommend this movie to people: first, who like musicals and secondly, dream far away from the world.… Expand

The dancing was competent but very unexceptional. This is not Ginger Rodgers and Fred Astaire. The story is average, except that the latter portion skips over a number of years without explanation and tells us nothing of what happened in between. It was rather strange and seemed like a shortcut to end the movie in a way that appeared modern and cynical, as if the writers felt they had to do that since the rest of the movie was so old fashioned.

I am not a big fan of modern musical films. So I was not expecting it to be a great or worst. The film opened with a song that I was not happy, because I did not like the verse or the music. And again to say, the modern timeline does not suit for the musical theme, unless it is a fantasy or an Indian film. The best part of the film was, those song fades away as the film progresses. But I kind of liked the drama/story part and the climax track with the quick flashback (kind of). Till that scene I was considering it an average film, but that one scene changed my stance. So, now I think it is a good film, but winning 6 Oscars, I don't know it deserved that.

Yes, the director is known for making music and musical film, but he has not made many. He's young and so his career. Yep, I loved 'Whiplash'. One of my all time favourite. If that film had won 10 Oscars, I would have not surprised at all. After that flick, the people were anticipating, to exceed that success in this film. As it was received, no doubt for those people it was a different flick, but not for me. Especially if you watch lots of Indian films. By the way the film characters were nice, and so the story, but not the songs.

Gosling and Stone were performed well. The chemistry between them was great. The narration was going decently until the end, which reminded me 'Vinnaithaandi Varuvaaya' ending that I was not happy about, yet something different than usual. Sometimes I am okay with cliché than this kind of conclusion, just to bring a change in storytelling. Overall an enjoyable film, most people would love it. Some like me would say it is a decent flick, but there's always a few who would never favour it. Yet worth a watch.
