Emo: The Musical

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.

Be prepared for a wild ride and lots of laughs, with an underlying theme of tolerance and being true to oneself.

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.

My niece was watching this and I saw it over her shoulder and went out and hired it myself. I laughed so many times with my partner and we hardly ever laugh in movies. It's got important ideas for young people but also for older people like myself – these kind of stories never get old. It's smart enough for adults, and kids will like it without necessarily picking up on the dark stuff. Watch it alone, with your kids, let your teens watch it, it'll make you happy.

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.
