5/10
I wanted to like it but couldn't

Right off the bat, I'll admit that maybe I would have liked this had I been in a different mood when I watched it. It seems to me that this happens often. A movie might look good on one viewing and not so good at another time.

Basically, the comedy just didn't hit me and the serious bits didn't seem real. The ending seemed condescending and just not satisfying.

Even the "Singing In The Rain" sequence didn't hit me. I saw it as a well contrived bit of comedy,but it just didn't reach me.

Bottom line is that in the case of this movie, don't really go by my review or by anyone's review be it good or bad. See it for yourself. You might like it. And you might not.

And is my review helpful to you??? NOPE!!!
