coffeecrispyy’s review published on Letterboxd:
if i could give this movie -10 stars, i would. maybe even less.
i hated it. every single second - the characters, the plot, the music even. how are you going to make a musical film with shit-ass music. no.
there was no chemistry between the two main characters (i don’t even remember their names but i know they were both assholes) and i was given no reason to root for them. like, i get that your boyfriend is a bore, but just end it. don’t cheat on him in the middle of a date tf?
also the music was boring and bad. and did i mention that it was bad? also also jazz is not that intellectual - it is still just music, no need to be fucking elitist (said as someone who has been in an jazz band). also also also, why is it a white man that’s trying to save jazz? while he is also ignoring at best, or actively erasing at worst, its roots in african-american musical tradition. i mean, man, just shut the hell up.
anyways, save your ears and yourself some time and dont watch this. goodbye <3
