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

The first 3 minutes are good!
A trite, nothing of a film
This is a truly horrendous film, it somehow thinks that it's going to be similar to La La Land, but without any of the charm, without any of the pacing, without any of the magic, without the great direction.
This is just a simplistic TV version of a Broadway play and a bad musical at that. I'm so glad I didn't have to pay to see this film, it was painful to watch.
Annette (but think Chucky)
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".
