Elle Fanning plays a continuously-sullen teen who enters a national singing competition in England.

She does a good job with theElle Fanning plays a continuously-sullen teen who enters a national singing competition in England. Her story isn't especially interesting, even with the addition of a faded opera singer as her manager/mentor. She does a good job with the vocals, but the relationships and evolution of her quick rise are rather flat and uninteresting (most of that credit has to go to writer/director Max Minghella). The weirdest thing was that the big final show is moodily lit, which makes it almost impossible to see the singers' faces…not realistic for TV at all. The pop tunes and music production was the most enjoyable thing about the film.… Expand

What a complete pile of predictable, cliche'd rubbish. Nothing unpredictable, nothing interesting, just one boring predictable scene after the other. The acting was good, but that's it. The script and plot are without depth, without tension,What a complete pile of predictable, cliche'd rubbish. Nothing unpredictable, nothing interesting, just one boring predictable scene after the other. The acting was good, but that's it. The script and plot are without depth, without tension, without anything of substance. Luckily I had my laptop to help me survive this. I only sat through it because I was watching with my teenage niece. When the movie ended, she said WHAT? What? Is that it?? I gave her a wry smile. What a waste of time.… Expand

Predictable to the bone and too sweetened. The story is built that way and cannot help it but still.

Considering that it's a directorial debut it is understood, however, the proposal doesn't really compensate and almost all the music is quite forgettable, which is a serious flaw considering that this aspect is a cornerstone of the narrative.

Elle Fanning complies but I still maintain my opinion that she should look for more solid jobs. It's good that she continues to work on so many indie films but she needs better roles.

It's not a ''bad' film but it could have been much better.… Expand

Who the most disliked, Elle or her sister Dakota, Max or his father Anthony? The real contest is this, an anti-talent show. The intergenerational pact sketch between two losers could have been intriguing, but the film ruins it(Mauro Lanari)
Who the most disliked, Elle or her sister Dakota, Max or his father Anthony? The real contest is this, an anti-talent show. The intergenerational pact sketch between two losers could have been intriguing, but the film ruins it as much as a "The Neon Demon" (Refn 2016) hybridized with "A Star Is Born" (Cooper 2018).… Expand
