i feel like people hate this movie because it’s a musical. like, this is a film adaptation of the broadway musical, not an actual remake of the original movie. i thought the movie was fetch. what i didn’t like were some of the changes they made to the songs (like stupid with love and what ifs) angourie was a good actress but i feel like her voice could be more musical-y, it’s too soft sometimes and it sounds like she’s singing a recorded song and not a live song. i really like how they portrayed the rest of the characters tho, especially janis & damian. also, the cameo with lindsay lohan could have been less… obvious. like when you do a cameo it’s supposed to be subtle. lindsay was pretty much breaking the fourth wall the entire time. overall, this movie doesn’t deserve the hate it’s getting, i really recommend it.
