Mixtape

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!

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.

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.

With excellent acting throughout. Great music and a warm and fuzzy sense of humour. No idea why people keep referring to Julie Bowen as being the "aunt" - how wrong can you be? If you want to block out the world and all its current angst curl up and watch this - it's the prefect antedote.

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.
