La Cassette

Watched this feel-good movie with my husband and kids, relaxing, amusing, amazing music, Julie Bowen as grandma maybe in 20 years from now, Nick Thune with some great comedy lines, the trio of teenagers a breath of fresh air.

Loved it!

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!

The acting, characters, small things that made me laugh and smile. It just got something. It got a nice, entertaining flow to it.

So overall better than what I had expected.

Great flick about making new friends, discovering new music, and how cool record stores used to be! Asked my wife what she thought at the end and she said "bittersweet" and I couldn't agree more. Some happy, some sad, all mixed in to one fun movie. The inner-workings of a mixed tape all flushed out - with Nick Thune as the standout imo as the gruff record store owner that takes the main character under his wing to share the love of music and mixtapes.

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.
