I loved the first one, I'm 35 and it's not my genre of music or movie but I loved it, was one of the last I watched with my uncle before he passed.
I think either people are desperate to point score or it was written in to every contract for British film and tv that they have to acknowledge all this PC rubbish of this generation who want change without any work or changing themselves to be better people. It was so unnecessary in so many ways, I heard audible groans in the audience, people are so sick of it. It's creating a theme of good people hating on something that should be good, anyway it added to nothing and took some of the magic away.
The storyline was pointless really, they've aged a bit and now the guy thinks they're past it so won't give them a new deal, there's acknowledgment of a death In the group and a forced love angle where the couple had no chemistry. Plus an angle where a fisherman hates a farmer because I guess that's a thing. There was no magic, no natural innocence or excitement , it felt unnecessary, uninteresting and uninspired.
The thing is now there's so many remakes, sequels or spin offs I'm not sure the film industry can actually make as many top tier films.
The acting was alright, pretty bland, bar 2 or 3 the names you won't remember, some don't even speak! The Glastonbury stuff was awfully filmed and executed. Then there's the last song, dear god I just felt ashamed thinking of some group of imbeciles sitting patting themselves on the back for calling the final song "union of different colours" even though they sing the lyric as "kinds"
I don't understand why they think forcing it into everything will fix the ignorant, they're a bad kinda people who won't be taught easily.
The film lacked what made the first a solid 8.5/9. Music was good, that's the only thing stopping it from going to a 2.
