6/10
Amazing! Boring! Crazy! Nonsense!

One of the most unbearably interesting movie. After a long time I saw people leaving the hall midway.

If it was half an hour shorter and had more dialogues than singing it would have got a cult following. But the artistic creativity won over an entertaining experience.

Acting is amazing and visuals haunt even after the movie. Couple of songs are beautiful but the other 38 seem to be just more of what you have already heard.

The wooden baby doll is unexplainable. I pushed my brain to come up with a justification but failed. Probably the writers will share an explanation one day.

You will either hate or love the movie. Everyone inbetween is just confused. And I am one of them.

When I see such a movie I like to to watch it again. But this is too slow with too much singing. Would require serious levels of resilience to watch for the second time.

Overall I think it is a missed opportunity to create a classic which would last more than a generation.
