MonsterPerfect Good idea lost in the noise

Philippa All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.

masonfisk Although not as bad as We are Your Friends, XOXO is another well-meaning but ultimately limp affair surrounding party goers celebrating their day at the rave. Probably the best flick to tackle this subject is Greg Harrison's 2000 dance opus, Groove. Here we have TV actors like Hayley Kiyoko (CSI: Cyber) & Sarah Hyland (Modern Family) slumming as movie stars but all the dutch angles, barely there clothing can't mask the one thing this film lacks, music. Without music, all we have is people espousing how great electronica is. Remember show, don't tell.

Ersbel Oraph The movie is an exaggeration. The music can be too loud compared with the voices. That might capture the environment, but for me it was a constant pain to turn the volume up and down. At a certain point I gave up.The camera is moving too much. Maybe the team attempted something moody. I have no idea. It ends up with the perspective of a friendly Indian who has had way too much coffee.The dialogue is forced. And the characters are stereotype. And the writer seems very happy with that as the audience has to infer the back history mostly from the stereotype.The interaction with the phone is part of the action. Yet the way it appears on screen is ugly. And both phone and SMS on screen are not new, so there is no excuse for the ugly blobs popping up on screen usually for obvious information.The actors are cute. But the acting is not good.In short, a movie that can be seen without sound and I doubt it will miss anything.Contact me with Questions, Comments or Suggestions ryitfork @ bitmail.ch

phillips-adl I am hugely disappointed by this film. I'm not sure what the story was really trying to do, it wasn't amusing or in any way entertaining. If you want to watch a good festival film watch Under The Electric Sky because it's actually good. This film portrayed loads of typical festival/drug stereotypes like everybody at these things is a total moron, that's not been my experience. Acting - awful. Music, not enough of it and mostly boring. Spend your time doing something other than watching this, trust me! Also, why does it need to be so cynical? I suppose it's not cool to be nice anymore. Why can't more people make good party films? Relatively simple concept and a lot of fun but so few people seem to have got it right.
