This movie showcases that LMM is a one-trick pony
First off, it was wayyyyyyyyy too long. The music felt like it was just Hamilton with some claves and agogo bells added in. There were some great characters and some good acting, but overall the whole thing deflates like a big beach ball over the [feels-like 12-hours] movie. I think LMM had some strong writing in Moana (His best actually), but I haven't really been impressed with anything from him since. Plus he spends too much time apologizing for his art. Fuck the critics. It's art. He can do whatever the hell he wants.
