~ An anticipated followup to the director's surprisingly engaging feature film debut around a tricky premise, making it an intense watching experience purely based on the masterful performances of the two leads with passion and dream pushing on their character's actions while making the whole story relatable enough for the newcomers of the jazz music scene
~ Trying to represent as well as resurrect the genre of musical movies, the director would hone his proven knack of bringing out the best of the actors and handling the interaction between them, which is made easier by the duo's proven chemistry in their preceding projects together
~ With the splendid first teaser trailer showcasing the lighter tone and the emphasization of the music as well as the non-verbal chemistry between the leads, it perfectly represent the tone and overall direction of the movie and makes the viewers all the more intrigued to see what the director would do with a lighter material to play with
