this movie is so. so so so so so good. saying that this movie is spectacular and magical is an understatement. it's dazzling and special. it's one of it's own. it's one of the best films of 2016. watch it. if you're still hesitating. i watched it yesterday and I'm still enchanted.

[@lanecrescent4161]

YX Lau I agree TOTALLY!!!! (Apart from the ending....I hated it. It was the RIGHT ending but I hated hated hated it lol )

[@sakurakiyomi9144]

Julieanne Stephens The ending is realistic... (I don't want to spoil it) I cried because it's too real.

[@osmovie596]

[@jamielanister2071]

[@BreakingBanter]

This movie was a straight up 10. Honestly felt like I was seeing real magic while watching it, it's so full of love and energy and I'm so thankful to Damien Chazelle for making it happen!

[@andrewsmith74]

Would you give Gosling & Stone 10 out of 10 for their singing and dancing?

[@BreakingBanter]

Andrew Smith Compared to Singin In The Rain or West Side Story? No. Within the context of the film which wanted the singing and dancing to feel real, pedestrian and accessible? Yes.

[@andrewsmith74]

Breaking Banter Who would want the singing & dancing in a musical film to be pedestrian?! I know several people who've watched La La Land & hate it. They said that the film is boring, especially in the middle. They said that Gosling's character is arrogant & unlikeable and that Stone's character has no personality.

[@BreakingBanter]

Andrew Smith The director wanted it that way? Because it's supposed to be about real people? That's fine, I can't argue with people that hate it, because that's up to them. But this is a great, fully realised vision that's a very exciting slice of cinema.

[@andrewsmith74]

Breaking Banter The director said that he wanted the singing and dancing to be pedestrian?! In musicals, the cast stop what they're doing to break into song and dance routines - musicals aren't supposed to be realistic. What is important in a musical is that the singing and dancing are of high quality. Have you ever heard anyone say that Gosling and Stone are excellent singers and dancers? You can't counter people who say that the film is boring in the middle? Or that the leads aren't likeable?

[@halalgordonramsay4983]

holy moly...don't tell me he really did that whole piano playing because....dude. wow.

[@levarmitchell3962]

baileythebunny Yeah I know right. Commitment.

[@Disneyfan1955]

Hello Chiara, I just saw La La Land, I have a question for you or & anyone in You Tube Land? I loved the movie!, but it seemed like when I saw it in the theater, it was shown in soft focus, how was the focus where you saw it? Any thoughts from you, or other movie buffs would be a big help to me!, David, a classic movie buff for over 50 years from Calif.

[@JetaimeToday]

Disneyfan1955: IIRC, only bits of the ending were in soft focus. The majority of the movie was not.

[@burlhorse61]

i wondered about that-they really had long takes on him playing, so i knew i was him playing

[@brianconnormusic]

The audio you hear is not Gosling's playing, it's pianist Randy Kerber. The fast runs and complicated stuff is easy to tell that he's just miming the piano.

[@UnbelievabIeMontages]

Learning those piano skills in 3 months must have been stressful as shit for someone who never learned piano before.

[@sierradean4261]

UnbelievabIeMontages he's played before though, he was in the band, Dead Man's Bones and he played piano for all his songs

[@ban1o]

yeah he has experience playing piano it was to learn to play jazz music at an ëxpert level"that he had to do so not as impressive lol.

[@davidlee9572]

It would be near impossible for someone to learn to play like that in 3 months with no experience. Thankfully he played before, it was amazing.

[@Lua-vx7zg]

No way in hell would anyone be able to achieve that level in 3 months, no matter how talented - he'd played before.

[@andrewsmith74]

Gosling and Stone should have been taught how to sing and dance properly.

[@juliangardea7254]

City of Stars, are you shining just for me?

[@hassanbadr8262]

Not u ... him only him

[@sandman9932]

I hope we hear Simmons say "NOT MY FUCKING TEMPO!"

[@danielarock1465]

epic!

[@MusicdudeForever123]

i think he did say something like that in the film as a matter of fact!

[@filipeloureiro8012]

[@Glinkaism1]

That's easy for your to say.

[@KenedyNguyen]

[@Magii]

This movie is hands down best movie from 2016. I loved it and I definitely will be watching it again and buying the soundtrack!

[@stephaneconstant1302]

i subscribe under Ur idea now, when i'm a boxxy software user and i can watch everything i want, i also know that i'll re-watch it asap with dubbing or subtitle

[@isaacjimenez9366]

Moonlight was better

[@Njx063]

Noooo magi wait 4 years and it’ll be on spotify

[@LVScooter1]

I saw a free screening of it already. The movie will inspire a new generation of actors. I know I should have pursued my dream of acting, but I did not. I want to see it again.

[@JUL__S]

why didn't you pursued it? if you don't mind me asking.

[@LVScooter1]

At the time I had to make the decision of whether I was gonna stay in New York City, or move out to Vegas to with my folks. This was after High School in the early 1990's. I realized I should stayed in New York with my idiot sister and husband. This is the one decision I truly regret about my own life.

[@edithmeckel8268]

christo pelez

[@mijkewalgemoet]

felt the same. However I'm not inspired as an actor. More as cinematographer or director! The film is so beautifully done! I've seen it 3 times in 2 weeks! I was never sure wether to pursue my dream or not. But this took it to a whole next level! I'm going for it!

[@mijkewalgemoet]

:)

[@mark_reviews-reddit]

My all-time favorite movie. I can't even think about it without getting a bit emotional.

[@fishwishpishpish9165]

Mark Midmark could have wrote this comment myself

[@heidic2740]

WAIT. Your telling me Ryan learned how to play piano like that in 3 MONTHS?! He has to be an alien that's INSANE!!

[@brianconnormusic]

The audio is not Gosling's playing, but that of jazz pianist Randy Kerber. During the fast runs and complicated passages, it's easy to tell that Gosling is just miming the piano playing.

[@Lily-ih8xz]

I'm pretty sure Ryan gosling could already play piano

[@alex-qh6tk]

TRUE LMAO. I learned the waltz in the piano for like 9 months 😭

[@thenoiy2846]

Holy hell I can't wait any longer for this movie.

[@manuelorozco7760]

TheNoiy me neither

[@LVScooter1]

I saw a free screening of it last week and the trailers do even touch the whole ice berg. This movie is that good. It will win at least best picture and director. I want to see it again,

[@KegosNation]

I know! I saw it at TIFF and I am dying to see it another handful of times when it comes out in a few weeks! I CAN NOT EVEN WAIT!!!!!

[@lunazen8661]

+LVScooter1 Yay !!!!

[@manuelorozco7760]

LVScooter1 I'll be ready for that

[@KevinMAbraham]

this movie deserves an oscar already..

[@andrewsmith74]

What for? It deserves Razzies.

[@lollyloveswatching]

Well it did win best picture.. for 10 mins

[@katherinehall1051]

lollyloveswatching BbHahahahahahhahaa

[@jalves6494]

One of the best movies if not my personal favorite movie of all time

[@myindigoblues5796]

Emma Stone is so beautiful. This movie just highlights how exceptionally talented, charming, and striking she is

[@ahjibaem4806]

I just can't stop smiling while watching this. I am ready to be fascinated by La La Land

[@hassanbadr8262]

Imcrying wtf

[@FegaBudisatria]

Oh God give us this movie already!

[@lanecrescent4161]

nrmora It made me cry.

[@dilayturkylmaz9064]

I watched it about 5 times or more. It's my favorite since 2016, and will. Jazz soundtracks, Ryan's real piano playing, Emma's voice, their different dreams, dances... Oh my God... I think I'm in love with this movie. Pure love...

[@bigdumbclown]

Saw it yesterday. It was great. Amazing cinematography, choreography, soundtrack, script, and acting.

[@stephaneconstant1302]

bro i also saw it yesterday but i used boxxy software app which i downloaded for free and also for free watched this movie. AMAZIng!

[@sludders]

anybody else watch that dreamers trailer like 37.9 times in a row?

[@LVScooter1]

I already saw a free screening of it and I watch the trailers too. It is gonna win at least best picture in my opinion.

[@talitar5924]

Simon Luedtke I thought I am the only one!

[@alexanderotteson1615]

yep

[@jessiexyz]

Its 3 years from its release and I've watched the movie for almost 30 times,the Dreamers trailer 400 times, the audition video 200 times and listened to Someone In The Crowd and Another Day Of Sun probably a million times and both of them would remain forever in my playlist...

[@yeonee90]

It's been a long time I felt this feeling watching a movie...... tearing up from this overwhelming emotion

[@penncrum9294]

I had the pleasure to see this movie at the Denver Film Festival and it was a masterpiece of musical movies. Loved it so much, happy to see the embodiment of golden-age cinema in this movie.

[@christakeen1391]

Penn Crum is it kid friendly - like would teens like it?? Just wondering. Thx🌻

[@penncrum9294]

Christa Keen I'm a huge film nerd and I'm a teen and I loved it, if the teen appreciates good movies then it is definitely good to go watch. Unless they absolutely hate musicals or music altogether.

[@christakeen1391]

Thx! No i think they will love it!! So excited to see it!!

[@joshwinter1097]

"They seemed excited about the amount of work it would take to do this movie" The sign of true artists

[@stephenwhite548]

Just saw it tonight and the world is really in for a treat. The soundtrack is impeccable! Also, I hope you guys like the pool flip! I only did it 33 times :D

[@denniszenanywhere]

That was you?

[@burlhorse61]

was that you??

[@esperanzahopejaduri678]

YAS the pool flip was awesome!!

[@stephenwhite548]

Sure was! Here is some extra stuff on my stunt if you would like to check it out: m.ocregister.com/articles/white-739410-kubr-stunt.html www.hollywoodreporter.com/video/la-la-land-behind-scenes-party-scene-975497

[@Mulderitssme]

Cool.

[@manuelorozco7760]

I've here looking forward to this movie for quite a while. La La Land seems like a beautiful and refreshing new work of cinema. Plus, I love Fred & Ginger movies

[@LVScooter1]

It is. It is vintage and classic combined with modernism. Damien really does capture the whole essence of what movie making was like back in the 30's, 40's and 50's Hollywood. I saw a free screening of it already.

[@manuelorozco7760]

LVScooter1 Cool. I have developed a soft spot for the classics since middle school. My favorite Fred & Ginger movies are Top Hat and Shall We Dance.

[@manuelorozco7760]

***** I'm still seeing this no matter what

[@daveedo10]

don't listen to Giselle5253, it's a terrific film. it's 2 hours long which isn't that long for a movie and the score is fantastic.

[@manuelorozco7760]

David Heilig I have no intention of listening to her.

[@curtasremendados5692]

I watched this movie at theater with my girlfriend in our anniversary and I'll never forget this movie and the epilogue scene. I just cried for the entire scene because I'm a musician too and I was unemployed for 5 weeks back then and I couldn't stop feeling an useless trash bag... After the movie we went to a rock bar and there was a jazz band playing and that was one of the most incredible experiences I've ever had in my life. We're together for 9 years now and I know that, when we'll have like 30 years together I'll still play city of stars to her and we'll remember that night. Thank you for this incredible movie and remember: loves aways finds you in the end. Also sorry for the bad English, I'm a Brazilian btw. Cheers :)

[@maromoon6220]

My friend, I hope you can tell me whether you got married and had children. We want a beautiful ending linked to this movie

[@robertvictoriasd]

Take my money, please...take it!!

[@JasonB95]

I never thought he actually learned to play piano for the role. I just figured he was pressing down on soundless keys and the playing was added in post production. I was even saying to myself that they did a good job at making it look real. To know that it actually was...that is next level. Respect.

[@cocobuddd]

All time favorite film. I cry every time I watch it, not because of the beautifully crafted ending, but because I know I'll never find another movie as amazing as this one. It's perfect.

[@baileybieganek2446]

I haven't been this excited for a musical movie since les mis guys!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@ariellim5120]

Bailey Bieganek Yea... but Les Mis was a disappointment...

[@baileybieganek2446]

Ariel Lim Offical Channel well...not really. I love it.

[@uhungma]

WOW! The production looks grand and visually arresting :D If only they release this sooner...

[@LVScooter1]

I know. Try to see if you can see a free screening of it in your city. I did last week here in Vegas. I would pay $20 or more to see it.

[@uhungma]

I really wish I could, but I'm not in the US, and I have to wait until January for the film to be released, so yeah...might as well continue watching the trailers for the songs, I guess... :(

[@excellentcollins]

[@excellentcollins]

[@josdeleon1990]

I will never get tired of this movie and its soundtrack. Never 💞

[@BoyDnpx]

Nobody thinks that Damien Chazelle looks good af?

[@amgtv3487]

This makes me wanna see it even more, thanks Lionsgate!

[@mojohead7954]

Watched this masterpiece in cinema today for the third time (local rerun). This movie is a pure magic and one of my favorite movies ever. Everything is so good - story, music, cinematography, choreography, chemistry between actors...

[@ChrisLev]

I recently saw this movie again and I can’t stop listening to the music ... What a wonderful movie with extraordinary musical pieces!

[@TheHeartless187]

Just came out of the theater. This is the best movie of this year.

[@harikishore2514]

emma stone beyond gorgeous, and her acting?..no words. just watched this movie.

[@danielarock1465]

what a beautiful cast, can't wait to see this!♡

[@TheSonicImpetus]

Straight up perfection, this movie is.

[@francescadipisa667]

I CANT WAIT TO SEE THIS

[@ahelilim202]

I guess I'll have to watch a bunch of old school movie musicals to hold me over until the release date.

[@danielj2000]

Honestly, i feel like everyone's forgotten that Ryan Gosling was in a band (called Dead Man's Bones) where he played PIANO, Guitar, and Sang. That was in like 8 years before this movie. Why has no one realised this.

[@ale.rodriguez.cuevas]

I am crying out of excitement for this movie! Can't wait to see it!

[@inesp617]

that movie touched my heart in a way that any movie has done until now. The way of rewriting and casting an ''old story of love'' is flawless

[@PrinceEntertainmentMedia]

I saw this on December 7th, 2 days before release at a screening. I fell totally in love with the movie. It has got to win the Oscar for best picture this year 2016. I don't see anything getting remotely close. The acting, the chemistry, a modern day musical that's colorful, bright, engaging, musically engineered to rapture your senses with a bittersweet and satisfying ending. Ryan and Emma steal every single scene they are in. I'm a man that loves superhero movies and scifi...and teared up a good 3 to 4 times during this movie, and admit without shame, I want to go back to the world of La La Land. I will purchase tickets to see this several times and buy it when it's available for home entertainment release, especially if it's on 4K Blu-Ray. Go see this.

[@Martinbeef]

Brilliant!! I hope we get more films like this coming along. We need to feel uplifted in this very sad times.

[@manuelorozco7760]

Your comment aged really well in some ways

[@mateotoribio6507]

Damian Chazelle se consolidó como excelente director en tan solo su segunda película... BRILLANTE!!!!!!

[@gabbycorsini03]

I saw this film at London Film Festival this year and it's easily my film of the year. It's just perfect in everyway possible. The acting, the choreography, the music, the cinematograpy, the story, just everything about it! Just thinking back to it is making me feel so happy cause that's what it is! A genuine, feel good film! (Made me cry a little though, just saying) I can't wait to see it again when it comes out in January! Damien Chazelle has done it again guys, and it's got Best Picture written all over it!

[@andyruth5333]

This movie should be the pinnacle of movie making for all inspiring movie director/ writer. what a truly beautiful piece of work.

[@melonieromano1482]

[@BlackKettleRanch]

God I hope this is good and it brings back real talent.

[@BlackKettleRanch]

Thanks, Kurt.

[@StanleyKuo184]

It's the kind of movie that you want to own every part of, from soundtrack to DVD to checking out the locations in person. I for one can't wait to see it again.

[@TheRONAN13]

This film has stolen my heart, it is a timeless classic and a joy to watch. I have seen it three times and I intend to see it again next week. It is a masterpiece.

[@Willismcnillis]

I know the Oscar’s aren’t what they used to be and that Moonlight is a great film, but in the years since this movie has become a phenomenon. I’ve been to sold out outdoor sing-a-long screenings, bought the Mia & Sebastian Funko and introduced it to friends and rewatched it and sung a long with them so many times. Aswell as singing a long to the soundtrack and rewatching scenes on KZbin over and over. Can anyone say that about Moonlight or name more than one person in it? La La Land and Damian were robbed.

[@catherinew7065]

Help, im seriously addicted and in love with this movie. It's maddening.

[@danielkendall8579]

I loved this movie, like seriously I fucking loved this movie!!!!

[@user-dg7iz5cy4k]

Both Damien Chazelle movies have all these supporting characters like Keith, the sisters, Tanner, Conelly, and more, but they all serve one purpose: to further the plot and character development of both leads. I like em all but I couldn’t care much about them because they aren’t made to be focused on or being a great supporting actor/actress, just made to continue the plot of just the two main characters. Honestly, they made me focus more on the leads than ever and they are perfect

[@bruhmoment_79]

i love everything about this movie
