I really loved this movie. I understand why others did not - but I did.
It was SINGIN IN THE RAIN and DAY OF THE LOCUST dropped in Owsley acid and smeared with feces, but it was wonderful.
It's wildly over the top and depraved, it captures the frenzied energy of the filmmaking process - especially during the "talkie" scene. It also moved me, Jean Smart's monologue to Brad, and that "cinematic conclusion". I loved it. The music, the Wild photography, the dedicated ensemble - everything is top notch. Paramount gave Damien Chazelle too much money and he ran wild with it, we are all the more lucky for it (and I say this having not liked WHIPLASH or LA LA LAND at all). I think we need more daring and original films like this instead of another superhero epic.

Sleazy trash. The pilot episode was enough for me. Lily Rose Depp is pretty much naked throughout, then masturbating, and then getting choked and suffocated by The Wknd who cannot act. There is nothing redeeming about this. And then reading how HBO spent $75 million to shoot the series, then completely reshot the entire thing for even more money - what a waste of resources and all for insubstantial trash. We went from LAST OF US and SUCCESSION to this?! Even TRUE BLOOD - which got quite exploitive at times - was never as full on sleazy as this. It's not even gonna last a season . Just think of how much was wasted, the money, the crew members time, our time for watching it.
