An old story line done differently, the dialogue is sung. Also done in flashback, although not chronologically, so it was hard to tell where in the time line you were sometimes. I didn't know Anna Kendrick could sing; I still don't. DidAn old story line done differently, the dialogue is sung. Also done in flashback, although not chronologically, so it was hard to tell where in the time line you were sometimes. I didn't know Anna Kendrick could sing; I still don't. Did she pay for this movie? I still don't get the story line, one of them is successful, supports the other to become successful, and they split up? Rather egotistical. If this movie was done straight up, probably a 5 or 6; I gave them kudos for trying a couple of different approaches. Expand

It's a good musical, but Jordan felt miscast and Kendrick's voice isn't strong enough. And I know nothing about directing, but the direction was weird

Even if this doesn't go down in cinema history as a great musical, it's certainly well worth a watch and a listen. Perfect for musically inclined individuals.

I pretty much loved it. It's a wonderful New York story but very much a movie that requires you to listen -- rather than watch for thrills. But if you let it in, it will deliver especially during it's final touching last moments. I've seenI pretty much loved it. It's a wonderful New York story but very much a movie that requires you to listen -- rather than watch for thrills. But if you let it in, it will deliver especially during it's final touching last moments. I've seen both New York casts when this was a stage musical but I may actually go so far to say Kendrick & Jordan are the best. Expand

The Last Five Years is arguably the worst movie I've seen in many years. Both leads with their obnoxious signing and terrible chemistry make for one agonizing experience.

Both leads with their obnoxious signing and terrible chemistry make for one agonizing experience. What made this terrible musical worst than the others is that every song had the same melody. This movie is guaranteed to be one of the worst of the year and most likely the worst. Expand

The film adaptation had me worried because of the trailer and the critic reviews, but I loved it. The chemistry between the two leads is real and they do a great job of making the emotions real. The music and show is unchanged from the stage version, except for a few modern additions for comedy. All of those additions were extremely minor and welcome in my mind. Go see it if you love musicals, it's really great. Expand

It's an interesting concept: 2 actors sing solos about their relationship over 5 years. Her story runs backward from the end, while his starts at the beginning.

Her story runs backward from the end, while his starts at the beginning. They intersect in the only duet, their marriage. This Off-Broadway musical has been brought to the screen with Anna Kendrick as a struggling actor and Jeremy Jordan as a successful writer. They both sing well and act effectively, but the direction by Richard LaGravenese doesn't add anything especially interesting (sometimes the handheld work is distracting). This film has appeared without fanfare and will leave the same way, but it holds appeal for those who appreciate tuneful songs, endless solos and a thorny romantic story.

It lasts only for the five minutes!

Recently I saw a couple of other films starring Anne Kendrick, I was not very impressed with them and so I got the same result for this one as well. I don't like musicals, especially not the modern ones, well, mostly. This is a short story that comes around 30 minutes, but with those nonsense songs, it became a feature film. Seems a few people liked it, I think they had a reason, but to me it was very boring.

There was no any decent performances, all I saw was the film characters singing facing in one direction. Maybe they were looking at the lyrics board. I suggest don't go for it seeking a normal romance-comedy. If you like the musical, you might enjoy it, other than that, I don't see this would satisfy any average guy. So no offense for those who liked it, but this is totally a skippable film the year.

3/10
