First Man



Damien Chazelle first came on to my radar with Whiplash, a great film. Then he knocked it out with LaLa Land, i loved it, i've seen it multiple times, it is the BEST PICTURE of 2016, doesn't matter which moonlight you shine on it. First Man, is not. This film is quite boring, to me it is saved by Ryan Gosling, the scene after he leaves the funeral and is brooding, is pure Gosling and him wanting to be away from people spoke to me. It picks up a bit after that, but not by much. There is a scene where it shows an astronaut  sigh when looking at how many pages is left in their class manual, i connected with him cause i too was bored. I almost wish Damien had directed Bohemian Rhapsody and Bryan Singer had done this.
