Reviews

Despite a lukewarm reception from critics, The Musical, or The Way to Happiness has some redeeming qualities. With a lackluster IMDb rating of 4.2/10, the film struggled to captivate audiences with its storytelling and execution. The performances, especially by Brigita Cmuntová, received mixed reactions, with some praising her emotional depth while others found it lacking. Rotten Tomatoes' consensus pointed out the film's formulaic plot and predictable narrative as its major drawbacks, earning it a paltry 25% rating. Despite its flaws, Metacritic noted the film's visually stunning musical sequences and catchy soundtrack, providing some entertainment value. Overall, the movie offers a mix of highs and lows, making it a polarizing viewing experience.
