The Good, The Bad and the Ugly (but hot)


The good: story of creativity; fun essayist moments on EDM music and culture; good riff on LA life (valley versus Hollywood); Zac and the boys are all believable; Wes Bentley is very good

The bad: underdeveloped storylines for other "friend" characters; the title is not right; out of nowhere character death that doesn't feel properly set-up or explained (a movie about dance music culture should probably own the drug connection and related deaths - hiding from it is kind of pussy)

The ugly - I know she's probably every straight male's fantasy girl, but jesus, that Emily girl can't act. She pouts like a baby throughout. If she wants to be a real actress, she's going to need to get rid of some bad habits immediately. That said, I appreciate that she is hot. But she's so one note overtly sexual.
