Sorry, but this just didn't get me excited. The love plot had a cringe vibe from the get-go and it elaborate into the worst throughout the movie. Watched the film at home with my wifey and teenage daughter. I think they found it amusing at some points (for instance at one point my daughter said "Dad, dad, you can't go get beer now, this is the best scene in the movie!") which indicated she'd seen it before. Anyways, I'm an old rag and I can't get excited by a typical love musical like this is, even though some of the scenery was neat. LA style, of course. Also, needless to say Emma Stone did a brilliant role and truly deserve the Oscar she was given, in my humble opinion that is.
