James Benning’s first film called The United States of America was a 1975 trip across the country, capturing its scenery through a car windshield. This second one also crisscrosses the nation, but without a car, carving it up instead into a series of static shots of just under two minutes, one for each state, presented alphabetically, from Heron Bay, Alabama to Kelly, Wyoming. The names of the places are nondescript, but the images attached to them are anything but, immaculately composed shots of landscape, cityscape and the spaces in between. As we move from A to Z, the images coalesce into a portrait of today’s USA, tracing out its fault lines almost in passing: fenced-off facilities, a river bed running dry, factories and refineries, run-down streets and gas stations, a camp under a bridge. The past is there too, seeping up through the songs and speeches that sporadically pierce the background noise or the motifs that evoke a whole career; the clouds, trains and cabins are stand-ins for films, not just states. As always, there’s time for more abstract thoughts too: each image may stand for a state, but representativity is slippery. Which state is more cinematic than the rest?
主角年龄太大，有违和感。一个谎言引起的共情故事，剧情比较拖沓，算是一个青春物语。
音乐剧舞台上营造出的隔绝感在电影中看不到，特别是男主在学校边唱边走的段落，完全表示不出社恐，更像疯狂英语-别管什么环境，都能想来就来一首。
对这个演员不太熟悉，所以对他的年龄没有先入为主的想法，因此看的时候没觉得很老，演技挺好，把那种尴尬演出来了。那个黑人姑娘是真的不守信用啊。最后，希望我们都能遇到让自己如沐阳光的人。
原来女主还演过高材生里的les，太美了真的！
Ps AA怎么这么壮了…
Ben Platt的实力不容置疑，唱功和演技都相当在线…但电影版…不知道是不是老爹用力过猛，为了突出儿子的主角地位，请了一帮超级大牌来做配角，却把剧中两个母亲的曲目删的一干二净，感觉人物瞬间扁平化…实在是可惜。
为啥会有这么无聊的电影。。。真的是我近两年看过最无聊的电影
两星 歌词如同说明书 生怕别人理解不了自己
不至于到40分那么差吧但确实也没多好...有几首歌拍起来就像MV一样，没有那种推动故事的感觉？两位母亲演技还是很在线的
删掉了Anyone那首和父亲的自白曲，总觉得缺了点什么
As much as I love Ben Platt, he's grown too old for this role. 他在舞台上的靈氣與美麗在大熒幕上消失殆盡，儘管歌聲再動人，使用用捲髮來裝年輕只凸顯出他的疲態而不是稚氣。Choreography and blocking are awful. The whole crowd in the gym during the opening number is a total disaster. Most of the casts are great, but Zoe could not deliver. And can we talk about why they cut "To break in the Glove?"
歌真的好听。就是看完也没治愈，更抑郁了……
虽说是个歌舞剧吧，但是你动不动就尴尬的唱歌让人觉得很傻逼
扮相和歌曲部分的录音效果都有些微妙的不和谐感，故事本身还是可以的，但作为电影来说头重脚轻了不少，权当听歌吧。
2019年那个寒假，靠着暖气片呜呜地哭，没想到已经过了这么久，换了个城市哭。
是不是非典型孤独里也是他
社恐自卑内向不会人际交往等很好的社会话题，故事如果不用唱歌的形式拍就符合我的期待了，能把简单的小故事讲好感人比宝莱坞式演技好多了。
不知道是音乐剧看太多遍了还是歌儿听了太多遍，改编成电影后感觉节奏变快了，但本的表演真是太棒了。个人感觉把唱歌部分全去掉，只以BGM的形式穿插，花更多时间做铺垫，把人物形象塑造更饱满一些，观感可能更好。电影出来之前，我幻想的evan爬的那棵树是在一大片绿油油的草地上，一颗孤独的大树拔地而起，他努力爬到树顶，眺望远方的落日，夕阳余晖散落在他稚嫩的脸庞，眼里熠熠生辉。
这简直是社恐抑郁（我的）成长史，改变从此开始
