Emo: The Musical

This movie is such a hidden gem. The acting is good, the songs are catchy enough without being cheesy, the dialogue is quick and the story is clever enough to make it new. It's like Mean Girls but with Emos – you don't have to be a mean girl or Emo to like it. I gave it top marks.

I really enjoyed this movie although I actually expected not to. It really reminds me of the emo part of my life with genuine moments and a coherent story. The songs were also great. One thing I didn't like is that it pushed the agenda that nobody's really emo and actually just faking but other than that, a great film.

Funny and important film every high school kid and parent should watch. Great pace, great music.

Really enjoyed it.

Fantastic production quality and attention to detail.

Great cast.

Excellent editing kept the story moving and enhanced the comedy.

Another great aspect is the universal theme. This isn't an Australian movie, it's a world movie that could play anywhere and get the same reaction.

Not just for teens. Anyone who enjoys good storytelling will thoroughly enjoy this film.

I went into this movie expecting a good laugh, but I was actually very taken aback by how much I liked this movie. The use of common tropes was hilarious and somewhat relatable to teens today. I even somewhat enjoyed a lot of the music.

I mean, it's not the best movie ever, but it's pretty relatable. I go to a college in the US and, while we don't have a bunch of emos sulking around (this isn't 2006), we do have Christians. They don't sing or wear long skirts, but they do hand out flyers EVERYDAY, and if you're sitting alone in the cafeteria minding your own business trying to get some homework done, Jesus' disciples will come ask you to go to bible study. Even if you say "honestly, I'm not that interested" they will continue pestering you, asking you if you want some leftover baked goods. No, Timothy, Sarah, I don't want your fucking mini-cupcakes, I want to study for my botany test. Kindly remove yourself from my personal bubble.
