This is some very strange movie, but I kind of liked it and stayed interested in how the story would end. Had some very weird decisions and shots in it, but all in all I appreciated the efford and the 'unperfectness' it showed. Also it leaves a lot of space for interpretations. Driver and Cotillard are top-notch and even Helberg fitted in quite well. Drivers 'comedy'-shows were great! All in all I recomment the movie to all arthouse-lovers. If you want to watch a blockbuster, go somewhere else.

The opening musical number is very enjoyable; the remaining 2+ hours are dreary, repetitive, unimaginative, predictable, and unpleasant.

Yikes. Repeating words on a pitch does not magically turn scripts into musicals. If you're not going to invoke meaning and memory to the music that fills the majority of your film, why use it? Famous comedian and singer have a baby (doll) and daddy goes crazy. All set to "song".
