Who am I to criticize or judge Hollywood's experts and the hours of hard work put into this movie? Well, I'm a viewer and I have my own opinion. The story was interesting, the actors were great and the movie deserves no less than 7/10... but then appeared the lead actor!

Bear with me for a moment, coz I'm not sure how to describe it, but there were robots in that movie (NOT the ones with human faces) who showed more emotions than the lead actor!

I've seen great lead actors carrying a 2 hour movie almost all by themselves. Here on the other hand, we have a lead actor destroying what could've been a great movie... single-handedly! Even worse, I've seen him destroy other good movies as well! Tenet and a couple of others if my memory serves well.

I used to think Ben Affleck ruins good movies. Boy... this "actor" beats him by light years! I wonder if he ever took any acting classes... no offense, just an observation.

What a waste to cast him as a lead actor in otherwise great movies. Has Hollywood not noticed already that this boy can't act?

Bottom line, in my opinion this movie deserves less than 1/10 thanks to the lead "ACTOR".

Outstanding performance altogether! The choreography, the music, the singing, the acting... all brilliant. Very enchanting and entertaining till the very end.

Being a big fan of Notting Hill, one cannot overlook the similarities. Not only the story, but even the lead actor happens to look a great deal like Hugh Grant.

If I have to criticize one thing, it's definitely the tiny microphones dangling from the performers' foreheads. They're probably invisible to the live audience, but watching it on my home theatre and specially when they zoom in on the face, it's a bit annoying.

This said, there are some nice tributes to Austrian celebrities such as Freud, Mozart, Schwarzenegger, Waltz... just to name a few.

Although I'm not the biggest fan of musicals, I highly recommend this fast paced romantic comedy to every music lover. You'll enjoy it.

I really loved the crisp beautiful shots of the scenery and the entire neighborhood... real eye candy. Kudos to superb cinematography.

I tried to watch it with an open mind, yet he failed to show some hard evidence to silence my skepticism. Btw were there any actual reporters, not belonging to this "cult", on site? Coz I'd love to be there at one of their sessions and watch from a distance, without being involved in their meditation. If I end up seeing and capturing on video these unexplained lights, I'd probably be impressed. Not that I'd immediately jump to the conclusion that we've been contacted by aliens! Rather I'd try the repeatability of the phenomenon and hence do a lot more proper scientific research. Until that happens, this 2 hour "documentary" deserves a 1/10.
