The Last Five Years is an interesting take on the musical genre, weaving the story of a couple's love and demise in New York City. The narrative flips back and forth; you see the woman's perspective from the end to the beginning while the man's journey unfolds chronologically. This structure creates a unique tension, as both characters sing about their experiences and emotions, showcasing their distinct voices. The pacing can feel a bit uneven, but it captures the highs and lows of relationships nicely. Anna Kendrick and Jeremy Jordan deliver solid performances, filling the film with genuine heart and vulnerability. The practical effects are simple yet effective, letting the songs drive the emotional weight.
