A playlist doesn't make a movie...

Rating: 4/10 (2 November 2017)

The movies runs on the playlist of songs and nothing more. It lives on the selection of songs and creates short scenes accompanying them. But there is nothing that holds it together.
Edgar Wright desperately tries to be Tarantino with this but he isn't close to being as talented as Tarantino is. All in all the movie wants to be edgy and cool, which makes it just uncool.
The movie is like the annoying friend of your teens you don't wanna hang out with, but he keeps calling you and you give in now and then because he has all the cool new music and a car.
The soundtrack in the end is better than the movie. Beside that this is a fluffy little crime thriller centered and edited around a playlist. And this is what people mostly rate: the soundtrack and not the movie.
I give this movie 2 out of 10. Two more points for the song selection making it a 4 in the end. You are better advised to get the playlist on Spotify and listening to it while doing something else instead of watching this movie.
