Apparently almost all the reviewers like this movie so I must be the exception. Don't get me wrong, it's not an awful movie, but it's certainly not a masterpiece. First of all I don't like movie where there is singing involved and in this case there is alot of it, and let's be honest it isn't great music. They try to make their lyrics funny, as it is a comedy, but besides a fake smile every now and then I didn't have much fun listening to their songs. There are a couple mildly funny moments in the movie, most of the time when Fred Armisen is involved but unfortunately he doesn't appear that much in Band Aid. The cast is okay but the story isn't great. For the rest I just sat through the movie, a bit bored and wanting more humor.

Nothing on so saw this and figured why not, so glad I did was a good movie didn't pull out my iPad once during it. Had a good story, well acted and I liked the songs too good rhythms. Worth a watch

Band Aid is a musical comedy that starts off very light hearted, fun and quirky but ends up discussing genuine marital issues, what it means to be in a long term relationship with someone and getting over loss. All the while incorporating great, entertaining music.

Starring Zoe Lister-Jones, Adam Pally and Ravi Patel the cast captures their respective characters very well, the two leads initially managing to capture the constant bickering of long married couples brilliantly in an almost too mundane but authentic way. While also managing the tenderness and genuinity of their relationship in several scenes that shows the love and care between the two.

The film's first half is indeed quirky and fun as the characters from this band and begin singing about their arguments and what they hate about each other. There is a growing debate between the two as Pally's Ben considers himself a realistic and Lister-Jones' Anna is the 'dreamer' this conflict of characters drives most of the drama and conflict of the film but is also what ends up bringing them together towards the end of the film where the film takes a more serious turn discussing the ideas of meeting a middle ground and of compromise.

Band Aid is a fun microcosmic view of human romantic relationships, a meditation of what it means to be with someone and issues of loss and the role of emotions. While also managing to discuss gender roles and the different ideologies that men as men hold and women as women hold, there is something very tender, soft but philosophical in the discussions of the film. Making Band aid a feel-good type watch that isn't taxing at all, a very easy watch.
