Set in the world of electronic music and Hollywood nightlife, an aspiring 23-year-old DJ named Cole (Zac Efron) spends his days scheming with his childhood friends and his nights working on the one track that will make his mark on the music world.
All of this changes when he meets a charismatic but damaged older DJ named James, who takes him under his wing. Things get complicated, however, when Cole starts falling for James’ much younger girlfriend, Sophie.
James helps Cole discover his own distinct voice, while he still needs to make some cash, so Cole and his friends take a job with a dodgy property developer (Jon Bernthal). But Cole is determined that this kind of work won’t be his future.
An inspiring undertone this film brings; never give up on your dreams, keep pushing forward. I feel like Zac Efron was the right audition for his role but wasn’t completely emphasised or have any creative ability in his character. It seemed a little lack-luster at times, although I do love the visuals that director Max Joseph has brought to this film. It’s defiantly worth a watch anyhow! I rate this film a 7.5/10.
