The Worst Film Ever
Thanks for the memories!
Fanciful, disturbing, and wildly original, it announces the arrival of a fresh, bold voice in American cinema.
what a terribly boring film. I'm sorry but this is absolutely not deserving of best picture and will be forgotten quickly. Entertaining and engaging cinema? No. Nothing performances with flat faces and mistaking silence for subtlety.
This movie make me feel really great. I really like Zac play in this movie (not only in this) and of course the gorgeous Emily. Nice musics, motivating story. I will watch it again for sure!
I've never seen any actor worse than Zac, yet he keeps making films. That's not it, so far he had failed to take the right project to work with. His films are either having no story or a silly concept and his roles among the worst. I could have liked this film if it was done by some other young actor. It looked a decent storyline on how an aspiring DJ is fighting to make progress. Living with his friends, then suddenly an opportunity knocks and followed by some issues surround it that should be solved to see the success in his passion in the music. So the remaining is to reveal how the things go on for him.Too slow narration, and it is being a music genre, a little soulless. Yeah, there's no rhythm. All we have seen a DJ while performing, but what his life would be like is what this film was focused on. Directional debute for a documentary filmmaker and he should make a couple of things right for his next film, including casting right actors and preparing an engaging screenplay. Some people might like the film, but not for me. This is completely an ignorable film.4/10
This film makes me wish I were back in LA. I feel like this was the answer to some of the artsy videos we can find here on Youtube. I thought the film was okay, I had higher expectations, NEVER have high expectations.. It's better you go there thinking this film will be okay, and be surprised than thinking it will be amazing and it's just okay. if that makes sense. The one thing that got me in this film, was how I really wanted to go to the gym and work out, run and listen to music. But that's about it. It's about friendship and forbidden love wish I usually like, but I wasn't sure where they were going with everything in this film. Words to describe the film: DJ, Music, Friendship, drugs, booze, workout, artsy. I give it 7 out of 10
I really liked it! Even Zac Efron, as a man roughly the same age as him, I hate to like him, but he's hard to hate in this one. It was beautifully shot. It's a movie surrounding the digital music scene. There's parties, drugs, music, and extremely beautiful women. "I love it here". The whole movie builds (albeit slowly at some points) towards the ending pretty nicely. Wes Bentley is one of the best at playing those characters you love to hate. Him and Zac have a very genuine relationship., in fact the whole movie is very genuine to me.Emily Ratajkowski though.... I mean, she's literal perfection. They actually make me want to "roll" in Vegas. I can't imagine what that life would be like being from a small Canadian town. Maybe that's why I enjoyed it so much. I got to see what it would be like to do things people think you're not supposed to. Seeing the pitfalls and triumphs of the ride was pretty amazing. Any rating below a 7 is a crime, how many story lines are 100% organic, give me this over another Spider-Man reboot any day...Pretty pumped for the Spider-Man reboots TBH.
