Rye Lane (2023)
6/10
Fun but a bit naff
3 August 2023
POSITIVES:

1) The two leads are both incredibly charming and likeable. I wanted everything to work out for both of them and I really believed in their chemistry 2) The film is a really great depiction of life as a young single person in London. London feels like its own character in the film, with really great production design and cinematography 3) The film uses art and music in really fun and interesting ways

NEGATIVES:

1) The film becomes a bit too quirky for me at several points, it was quite cringe at times 2) A lot of the humour just didn't work for me and felt quite forced sometimes 3) Despite having a short runtime, the film still often felt like it was coasting without much of a dramatic engine actually driving the plot forward.
