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?
挺好看的，哈哈哈哈，无论是情节还是歌舞的融入都比前两天我看那个强多了
以为平平无奇度过的那些人生正是自己现在向往却回不去日子
完全不敢沉浸其中，说起丧劲还是日本人拍的味儿正。
故事落了俗套，但有几个镜头很有趣，热门歌曲一首接一首可谓诚意满满了
优点和《花束般的恋爱》的差不多，缺点也是，像是日本青春文学版本的《薄荷糖》
这部片子很日本，一如既往的丧，所以让我觉得，这个傻逼世界我觉得我又行了
愿意称之为动画片版Glee，哈哈哈。爱好欧美音乐的看起来都会蛮享受的，因为真的是每首都耳熟能详。
“你的身体充满尚未成佛的词语”。
这不比春晚热闹好看！情节就是完成任务式顺拐，场景设计的创意至少得来个奥提吧。
在状态从头笑到尾，不在状态五分钟都看不完。
永远喜欢年轻人在街头谈恋爱打情骂俏的样子，喝得很醉两人散步不愿意回家的夜晚，永远喜欢。
1代好听，2代又好看又好听，光版权就足回票价了。如果有上映的话。
又看了一遍，看懂了好多镜头语言，看懂了很多背景细节，也确信了苏估计是死了。
虽然不及上部，不能更好的共情，但是好歌好主题，依然是打动我一个人做观众时的那种虽孤漠但温馨。
看不见太多意义的续作，无论是故事搭建还是人物刻画，都远不及前作，就连一把感动的热泪都无法赚取了。倒是建立在一流动画工业之上的舞台效果，让人不禁心生遐想，未来的舞台表演，无真人的形式是不是会逐渐大行其道。
其实不如第一部，尤其是狼女儿的洗白和卡罗威的作用…但依然是最棒的音乐动画之一……
除了一个庞大到几乎不可能实现的蓝图
3.5 舞美和场景设计变得更棒了，太空歌剧的点子永不过时，可反派的动机却显得单薄了
完全不敢沉浸其中，说起丧劲还是日本人拍的味儿正。
对我这种脸盲患者太不友好啦！
