The Last Five Years

The Last Five Years honestly disappointed me. I've been a big fan of the musical and I was very excited to see it make it's way onto the big screen. The jumping back and forth in the timeline works on stage, but doesn't transfer very well to movies. It becomes confusing and difficult to follow. The performances of Anna Kendrick and Jeremy Jordan weren't terrible but didn't feel strong enough to support the story. The music (very important as this is a musical) was alright, but didn't have the moving effect they did in the musical. The best song was definitely "The Schmuel Song". I actually quite enjoyed Jeremy Jordan's rendition. It's better than your average romantic comedy, but did not live up to it's potential. I'd suggest just skipping this one.

Gosto de musicais, até que gosto de Anna Kendrick, mas esse filme, pelo amor de Deus, é uma chatice sem tamanho. 1h34min de pura perda de tempo e azucrinação dos meus tímpanos.
