Coffee Wars

Coffee Wars is slightly reminiscent of The Bear, but set in a militantly vegan coffee shop instead of a restaurant. (Don't you dare ask for a latte with milk!) The winsomely coffee-obsessed misfits take their espresso shot to the World's Best Barista competition (is there really such a thing? I hope so). I thought this one-shot movie was funny and full of heart, and almost hope they'll base a series on it with the same setting, rivalries and cast members. You'll never see your faceless anonymous coffee shop workers the same again. Tip them accordingly. And don't you dare ask for milk from a cow!

Coffee Wars is an incredibly funny and entertaining film, and has been making me laugh out loud ever since I watched it. This movie follows the story of three coffee shop owners vying to control the coffee industry in their small town. It features a great cast of characters, including an outrageous barista and an old-fashioned cafe manager. The humor of the movie is spot-on, incorporating both sight gags and clever dialogue. There's never a dull moment in this movie, and every scene is full of unexpected laughs.

The cinematography and direction of the film are surprisingly good, as the movie is largely set in the coffee shops and their surrounding areas. The filming does a great job of capturing the characters' personalities, as well as the amazing coffee drinks they serve. There is an impressive amount of detail put into each scene, and the use of camera angles and lighting help to portray the atmosphere and mood of each setting.

Coffee Wars is incredibly well-written, with a great blend of comedy and drama. The movie provides an interesting look into the coffee business, and the different coffee shop owners' strategies for success. Watching the characters going head-to-head as they try to become the coffee shop king makes for an exciting and amusing story.

Overall, Coffee Wars is an amazing watch. It is a funny and interesting movie that captures the spirit of coffee shops and the competition that they face. The characters are lovable and the jokes are hilarious. If you're looking for a unique, comedic watch, this movie is highly recommended.

If you like Notting Hill or Four Weddings etc then this film is for you...goofily funny and just a good time was had all round.

Great cast, good script,well shot and just quirkily funny and I'm still smiling about it now several weeks after I first saw it.

Okay, I'm not the kind of person who writes revenues, so bare with me I'm 86. I have to say that I have never seen a film like this-- funny, colorful and 100% about an issue! The closest thing I can compare it too is Dr Strangelove, though nothing like it. This is very well acted and so inventive. It shot of reminded me of Everything Everywhere All At Once... The dialogue is fast and British, so I put on the Closed Captions to keep up, That was well worth it. It was funny and shocking at times, and seemed geared for a younger crowd than me, but I adored it. Please please watch this one! I am so happy I did.

When the underground latte competition in the movie came on I was in heaven! It was The Fight Club of Latte Art! This film was so inventive and special. It combines a social message with balls to the wall comedy! I have never seen anything like it. It's on the one hand Pitch Perfect or Dodgeball but on the other it is as wonderfully absurd as Everything Everywhere All At Once... without the buttplugs! Although there is a scene where a guy eats coffee beans, poops them out and roasts them... "A tangy yet savory flavor!" The cast is great too, reminds me of The Full Monty or Fisherman's Friend with a wonderful ensemble of Brit actors, mostly. One thing I do really appreciate is the PWD actor who plays the main barista judge, I applaud the filmmakers for casting an actual PWD for that role. A role that doesn't even call for it. Truly, a great ride, boatload of laughs, a few important messages laced in and a great way to spend the evening.

Coffee Wars was an enjoyable watch. The theme centres around Jo who Is a strong advocate of Oat Milk.

For the first ten or fifteen minutes I wasn't sure if I was going to enjoy the film as the colour palette , voice over, general cinematography and set design took a bit of getting used but as the film went on it was clear to see that the style really did suit the story being told.

Jo moved out of her parents place, who own a successfully diary producing farm in their own right, to open an independent vegan coffee shop. As she and her shop begin to struggle financially, Jo has to decide whether to enter the World Barista Championships that she's previously had issues with, not least because Oat Milk is banned in many aspects of the competition.

The film tests Jo's beliefs and principles as well as those of her friends and employed whilst also taking a look at some of the faults of high street chains and it did it all in the setting of a quirky independent coffee shop.

The support characters do a good job of bringing enough laughs and charm to the film although they can be over the top in certain places.

The visuals during the coffee making scenes are great. I especially enjoyed the underground coffee battle scene, my favourite scene of the movie.

Whilst it took a bit of getting used to, Coffee Wars won me over as an enjoyable comedy with a decent message. I hear all that all profits will be donated to charity, good on the team for that one.
