Good music (not great - this is no 'Grease'), and dancing. Unfortunately, Emma Stone can't sing, dance or act. But Ryan Gosling is terrific in it. He can do it all - what a talent.

There was absolutely NO chemistry between the two of them.

The tearful observatory screen dancing in the stars was really beautiful. For me, that one screen was worth surviving the entire movie.

And of course, this goes without saying in every Hollywood movie: - it was waaaayyyy too long.
