La Cassette

I'd give this a 6 if it was a theatrical release. But for a streaming film I give it a 7 which I feel is slightly above average.

As a person who was about the same age of the main character at the same year in time it was fun to see, even if most of the rest didn't really mimic my life. Perhaps I would have been more critical if it wasn't so suited for someone of my age. But I also was never into punk rock and never lost my parents or was raised by a non-biological parent. So some people could relate more to those components.

It seems like a good film to put on with a family with people of many ages. And it's nice to have movies like that available on Netflix.

I enjoyed this film. It has a feel good quality without being full of schmaltzy. The three girls are great charters. They come across as real with the normal ambitions of young teens. Down ti earth and fun with enough pathos to make the happiness real.

Once you put aside its Disney-esque sappiness and saccharine on its surface, Mixtape will serve you with a feel-good family drama. It's a sweet tale not only about a coming-of-age but also about bonding and eventually about coping with the bleakness of the past.

I had no idea about this film but i liked its idea when i read its story, and as i started watching it, i was feeling really entertained with a big smile on my face until the end credits. The film has a lot of cool elements, it takes place in the late 90s, so all those from that era will feel nostalgic, also the soundtrack is a big part of the film, with classics by the Kinks, The Stooges, Cheap Trick and many more. The cast are really great, (with the lead young talented actress Gemma Brooke Allen at the helm), and each character is well-written and meaningful. The film focuses on the importance of friendship, family and being your own self while listening to awesome music. Highly recommended.

Although nothing oscar worthy or very original,did enjoy this & even laughed a time or two.

It was cast & acted ok,overall storyline & cinematography decent.

Maybe it was geared more towards teens,but something a family could watch together.

A weekend popcorn flix,worth checking out!
