About
You’ll likely enjoy this if you want a wild, mockumentary-style music comedy-drama with club culture, dark humor, and an emotional comeback angle; Not for you if you dislike drug-fueled chaos or a dated Ibiza scene vibe like The Commitments.
Pros: big laughs; strong heart; great soundtrack | Cons: dated club satire; uneven tone; heavy drugs and language
