Engaging film, shame about the the EDM soundtrack
I was sceptical about watching this movie but was pleasantly surprised . I like Joseph Ferrara from Entourage, his slightly shy acting style worked well in this movie.
The problem which may cause many seasoned clubbers turn off, pretty much from the beginning, is the use of what's known as EDM as the club's choice of dance music. For the unaware this is the sort of music they play in venues that teenagers going out for the first time frequent rather than somewhere an established 'scene' would go on a regular basis. Ask anyone who has enjoyed themselves in the 90s and 00s and they will tell you what a poor genre of music EDM represents. A good selection of house music tracks would have set a much more convincing musical backdrop, instead it made me think the film was the brainchild of a public school teen with no clubbing experience rather than a true story of those with genuine influence in the New York club scene.
The fact that it was a true story made me persevere and it was worth it. The story moves forward to show hard work pays off and goes into just enough depth of the main character's struggles to keep your attention whilst keeping the flow.
In short worth a watch although it's a good candidate for a re-score
Great Movie just Missing a few things
The Club Life Movie , has an awesome story line but could have been executed a little better . It depicts New York City Night life Promoters, Bottle Girls , Bartenders and Bouncers and of course your Ballers and Broads (excuse the terminology). In all it could have been a little longer. The movie had gaps you could say missing info , missing a certain spark in all the movie was by far not the best movie I saw, but it was interesting a different. Wish they showed more of the other people and answered certain questions and not hide certain things. And it was not a waste of money I had no problem spending 15 dollars to see it, well worth it maybe the next movie this person makes will be a step above and he'll have a definite HIT!
