I saw this movie and I thought I wouldn’t like it because it’s kinda an old one yet I was really surprised in a good way because the actors play, the story, the script and everything was well done and credible.
I liked the songs..especially the “I’m the best” one song by the 2 actors at different times and moments. Yet both were so great and lovely.
