The Last 5 Years is based on the musical of the same name written by Jason Robert Brown, and directed by Richard LaGravenese. So naturally it is a musical.
I haven't seen any musical on the silver screen for quite a while. And with Kendrick playing the lead, well, I can get really biased; but I'm looking forward to a good musical and hope this will deliver.
Not to mention Jeremy Jordan is the male lead. Jordan's songs in the very unfortunately short-lived TV series Smash (which I thoroughly enjoyed its 2 seasons, also starring Katharine McPhee, and thought it should have "lived" longer) are some of the songs that I'm still wanting to buy the MP3s but can't because I live in Brunei.
The trailer doesn't show much other than the fact that it's shot with beats like a musical, and promises a good story with that dramatic opening.
