I have wanted to watch this for a while now, and omg I really loved it. This was such a feelgood film without it being a typical in your face 'feelgood film' you know? It was more subtle in that I would find myself being silently smiley and happy after certain scenes. This film made me happy :)

I personally really enjoyed the little scenes that didn't necessarily 'contribute to the plot', they are what made the girls seem so real. There was the smallest ever storyline that I was confused and kinda 'umm what' about but I can let it slide lol. And I also adored the scenes where they were practicing in the band room, I rewatched them multiple times just to experience them again. The way it was shot felt so natural and almost quiet and like I was actually there, watching them interact in real time.

The acting I loved. It felt like they were actual schoolgirls, they felt so real. Son is so endearing and I love her. I love how each of the girls had their own personalities but like they weren't overdone so much that they didn't feel like real life people. It didn't feel like a movie in that sense, like it didn't feel manufactured. I loved that about it.

The music was so great. When Son sang it felt freeing and youthful. I felt so proud of her. Honestly devastated the original songs by The Blue Hearts aren't on Spotify though :(

I would probably watch this again, but it was a pain trying to watch because loads of the sites that had it were super buffery, super low quality or had subtitles missing so it look me like twice the time to watch because I had to keep switching between sites HHHHHH but if I could watch it again completely free of disruption, I feel like I would love it even more. It's a quiet happy place :))
