Overhyped

Rating: 6/10 (20 August 2018)

There are some interesting plot features such as his blind room-mate, but they ultimately don't contribute to the storyline (which is predictable and not very complex). Its as if they've been put in to hide the fact that this is an unoriginal mix of a fast and furious movie and a typical 'boy meets girl' love story.
The main problem is the reliance on music. Music can make any moment in a film magical, but this relies heavily on a certain taste of music to boost any given seen above a mildly entertaining level. If you dont like this music, you dont like the film. I asked a few people why they liked it so much and they just said 'the music!!!!'. Its well choreographed, and I'd watch it for free on netflix but otherwise.... nothing to see here.
