Mixtape

POSITIVES

  • Gotta love the pleasantly simple premise that revolves around a mixtape, the songs, how music is living, and how they could bring people together. 

  • Delightful story, filled with charming characters, fun dialogue, solid scenes, and feel good moments. 

  • Fantastic cast! Gemma Brooke Allen, Julie Bowen, Nick Thune, Audrey Hsieh, Olga Petsa, and Nick Thune, are all excellent in this. 

  • The 1990s references from the Y2K bug, Napster, to Ask Jeeves, are definitely some nostalgic fun. 

  • Soundtrack is filled with a pretty good collection of rock and pop songs. 

NEGATIVES

  • Not exactly the most exciting movie to watch, and can be a little too precious at times. 

  • There’s a certain familiarity to the plot progression that keeps this from completely standing out among the sea of movies in this vein. 

  • You might not completely relate with this movie if you think this is strictly a kids movie because of the young female cast. 

  • Some outdated plot tropes, ideas, and concepts. Meh. 

  • The bully characters cliche. Tired of it.
