About halfway through Damien Chazelle's quietly transcendent La La Land, aspiring actress Mia (Emma Stone) is reassuring a mildly dejected Sebastian (Ryan Gosling) about his unlikely dream of opening a jazz club in a world that doesn't care about jazz. The reason the club will be a success, asserts Mia, is because Sebastian himself is so passionate about jazz, and people enjoy responding to that kind of passion.

The most audacious big-screen musical in a long time, and - irony of ironies - that's because it's the most traditional.

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.

Such a happy, sweet-natured movie - something to give you a Vitamin D boost of sunshine.

La La Land gets its hooks (and harmonies) into you and by the end I was entranced by its love letter to Los Angeles...

Chazelle has crafted that rare thing, a genuinely romantic comedy, and as well, a rhapsody in blue, red, yellow and green.

A thoroughly modern musical which reminds what great cinema song and dance movies can be.

The characters, the chemistry, the story, the music, the dance, the romance, the view - it all tapped right into the inner recesses of my fanatical love affair with cinema.

Chazelle has assembled a vibrant, infectiously hummable pastiche of musical and cinematic styles - an entrancing ode to the glories of cinema past as well as a heartfelt expression of faith in the medium's future.

For Chazelle to be able to pull this off the way he has is something close to remarkable.
