I'm completely baffled on all the hype around this, the awards. And it beats me why people write those 10-star reviews.

I love these actors, music, musicals, old and new settings, classics, good jazz, romance -- practically everything that was used to mix up this film. Yet it fell short of being enjoyable by a mile. Or ten.

The musical part has just one song really. And while it returns 3-4 times can't carry a 2+ hours sitting. And there are good parts, not even few, but put together add up to maybe 15 minutes. Definitely less than 20.

2016 was a really bad year for cinema, but even there 15% good content can not put you on the short list. Or the long list.

Also it looks like shot directly for iPad watching. Nothing in it requires to be in a movie theater. And beyond a handful of minutes of piano and jazz parts even speakers are not to be missed.

So if you absolutely want to watch it, I recommend do it at home equipped with food, partner, other distractions and a fast-forward button. But if you skip it altogether, you hardly lose anything either.

Real shame wasting all that talent, and more so fueling the hype and reinforcing the bad trend that keeps actually good pictures from being financed.
