I don't usually take the time to write a review. Despite how much I love movies. This movie is genuinely a fun ride. The music used in this movie, with the well placed Bono makes for a fantastic soundtrack.
If you're a lover of musicals, this definitely worth watching. All the songs used are fun or heartfelt. With a fantastic line up of celebrities who can actually song and obviously Halsey and Bono.
Making it a solid vocal cast.
Despite it kind of focusing somewhat on Buster Moon again. The story does a good job at showing everyone overcoming an obstacle during the shows actual performance; which I think is a great way to do it.
Many of us face fear. A lot of us lose confidence in ourselves. Too worried about what someone may think. When all we need is to believe in ourselves. Or, help those who have lost there way; to there way back. While they could have made Clay's (Bono) backstory a little longer, I think they gave enough cues to put it together so that it wasn't drawn out or dumbed down.
This was actually better then the first movie. In my opinion.
Not sure of they'll get a third movie. But, if they do; I'd like to see more of Johnny and Nooshy. As well as the other characters and new additions.
Let the story get away from trying to be in an even bigger theater. Get away from Buster Moon. Let him have learned his lesson and running now a successful theater.
Maybe a little bit of a time jump, after the show being successful and they are all riding on the high. Maybe having to remember where it all started and checking egos. Or, just keep it fun and simple. Doesn't always have to be super serious or a major life lesson.
But, if this movie is the last one, it definitely was a fantastic swan song.
