About

You’ll likely enjoy this if you like offbeat British dramedies that mix mystery, messy relationships, and jukebox-style musical moments, somewhere between Little Voice and People Just Do Nothing; Not for you if sudden singing pulls you out of a story.

Pros: boldly original mix; strong character drama; memorable pop-song moments | Cons: musical style may divide; occasionally cheesy tone; murder plot takes back seat
