6/10
Good, But Too Rushed

Warning: Spoilers
Okey, I don't write a review on a movie too often, but after I watched this i just had to.

The movie starts off OK. You get to know Ethan and by the first couple of minuets you are already rooting for him, but then things start to take off. The movie speeds up really fast and you don't get to capture the moments in this film.

It suddenly feels like you are watching a music video and it all goes way to fast. The story switches between many characters and story- lines then suddenly it's to much to wrap your head around. I do not blame it on the main actors (Ethan and Krystal) because they fit amazing together. I blame it on the script. This movie could of been so good if they kept it simple.

After what you feel like is a tumble you are starting to get to the finale, but the story do not fit or makes sense. The way he gets to preform and simply how hes manager just got drugged and so on does simply not fit. They are trying to keep all these characters in the loop, but what they really doing is making it hard to watch.

If they used a little more time on less characters and make it all unfold to a great natural finally this would simply be one of my favorite moves because i am such a EDM fan. (Props to the music they used btw)

And then the end the movie just cuts off. I am doubting that there will be a sequel but people wanna see what happens after he's set and big finally. Nothing much, but just a nice couple of scenes to close the movie out.

Finally: A OK movie that could of been amazing with a little bit better scripting, but I still enjoyed it!
