Overview

Mia, an aspiring actress, serves lattes to movie stars in between auditions and Sebastian, a jazz musician, scrapes by playing cocktail party gigs in dingy bars, but as success mounts they are faced with decisions that begin to fray the fragile fabric of their love affair, and the dreams they worked so hard to maintain in each other threaten to rip them apart.

Variety

La La Land is an elating ramble of a movie, ardent and full of feeling, passionate but also exquisitely controlled.

Roger Ebert

"Movies can still be magical, and they can still provide the channel for us to see magic in the world around us."

The Verge

La La Land is a glorious feast for the eyes and the soul. Its complete lack of restraint, cynicism, or self-consciousness invites viewers to drop their own reservations and just feel the big, broad emotions.

Los Angeles Times

The glory of 'La La Land' isn't in its big numbers, but in intimate moments—a minor-key nocturne, an impromptu duet, reminding us of Hollywood's golden era.

Vanity Fair

La La Land begins with such an ecstatic rush of joy—and ends with such a gloriously bittersweet flourish—that you kinda can’t blame the film for sagging a bit in the middle.

The Atlantic

Chazelle has reinvigorated the big-screen musical by embracing the present while paying tribute to the past, by balancing irony and innocence, novelty and nostalgia.

Rotten Tomatoes

La La Land may seem romantic and wistful, but from the opening sequence onward it balances reality and romance, the frustrating quality of every-day life and the false allure of Hollywood.

IMDb

I was entranced from the opening scene until the final note played by Gosling's piano. This movie went from 'I hate musicals' to 'this is the greatest movie I've ever seen'.
