I found to be kind of weak as a musical. It's definitely not Damien Chazelle's best movie. That would be Whiplash.
La La Land was an OK movie. It's kind of sappy and pretentious but I enjoyed it. The City of Stars song was catchy and stuck in my head. I'm still not sure why it won so many awards. I guess because most voters live in LA and industry people love movies about the industry.
Of the Oscar nominated movies I thought Arrival and Hacksaw Ridge were better.
Quoted from FatPanda:Studio recorded singing
I think I prefer musicals that way. 90% of musicals over the years were made like that (completely made up number).
Otherwise you get Les Miserable which I works for that movie but wouldn't want for every one.
