Minnesota Man70 - A brotastic EDM retreadof Cocktail. I'm not complaining.

Le Anne of Tinsel And Tine70 - While the graphics showcase a certain level of multimedia I haven’t seen in mainstream film and the music is certainly the guiding force of the plot, Cole’s life is anchored not around his new connections and opportunities but around his three friends: Mason (Jonny Weston), Ollie (Shiloh Fernandez), and Squirrel.

Movie Waffler Eric Hillis60 - What saves the movie is the performance of Efron, who just may be the natural heir to Tom Cruise. Like all great movie stars, he has a knack of papering over the film's many cracks, forcing us to invest in his character in a way both his director and the script fail to.
