Coffee Wars

When the underground latte competition in the movie came on I was in heaven! It was The Fight Club of Latte Art! This film was so inventive and special. It combines a social message with balls to the wall comedy! I have never seen anything like it. It's on the one hand Pitch Perfect or Dodgeball but on the other it is as wonderfully absurd as Everything Everywhere All At Once... without the buttplugs! Although there is a scene where a guy eats coffee beans, poops them out and roasts them... "A tangy yet savory flavor!" The cast is great too, reminds me of The Full Monty or Fisherman's Friend with a wonderful ensemble of Brit actors, mostly. One thing I do really appreciate is the PWD actor who plays the main barista judge, I applaud the filmmakers for casting an actual PWD for that role. A role that doesn't even call for it. Truly, a great ride, boatload of laughs, a few important messages laced in and a great way to spend the evening.

Coffee Wars was an enjoyable watch. The theme centres around Jo who Is a strong advocate of Oat Milk.

For the first ten or fifteen minutes I wasn't sure if I was going to enjoy the film as the colour palette , voice over, general cinematography and set design took a bit of getting used but as the film went on it was clear to see that the style really did suit the story being told.

Jo moved out of her parents place, who own a successfully diary producing farm in their own right, to open an independent vegan coffee shop. As she and her shop begin to struggle financially, Jo has to decide whether to enter the World Barista Championships that she's previously had issues with, not least because Oat Milk is banned in many aspects of the competition.

The film tests Jo's beliefs and principles as well as those of her friends and employed whilst also taking a look at some of the faults of high street chains and it did it all in the setting of a quirky independent coffee shop.

The support characters do a good job of bringing enough laughs and charm to the film although they can be over the top in certain places.

The visuals during the coffee making scenes are great. I especially enjoyed the underground coffee battle scene, my favourite scene of the movie.

Whilst it took a bit of getting used to, Coffee Wars won me over as an enjoyable comedy with a decent message. I hear all that all profits will be donated to charity, good on the team for that one.

It was very good! Funny, not too preachy but it had a great story and it made me rethink some choices. My family and I have cut back on milk for quite a while now and I just bought plant based heavy cream today and although most of my changes were selfish since lactose wrecks me....it was good to know small changes help the planet in a big way. I wanted to watch this movie and was delighted to see that it was available on Amazon. It was very well done and I was really impressed that coffee wars and competitions like in the movie actually take place...as shown in the credits. Incredible talent and artistry!!

My boss has been pushing the advantages of a plant based lifestyle but this movie wasn't pushy, just fun and thought provoking. I am hoping to slowly introduce more changes in my life and subtle movies like this help. Bullying, shock and awe doesn't do it for me.

Coffee Wars is an incredibly funny and entertaining film, and has been making me laugh out loud ever since I watched it. This movie follows the story of three coffee shop owners vying to control the coffee industry in their small town. It features a great cast of characters, including an outrageous barista and an old-fashioned cafe manager. The humor of the movie is spot-on, incorporating both sight gags and clever dialogue. There's never a dull moment in this movie, and every scene is full of unexpected laughs.

The cinematography and direction of the film are surprisingly good, as the movie is largely set in the coffee shops and their surrounding areas. The filming does a great job of capturing the characters' personalities, as well as the amazing coffee drinks they serve. There is an impressive amount of detail put into each scene, and the use of camera angles and lighting help to portray the atmosphere and mood of each setting.

Coffee Wars is incredibly well-written, with a great blend of comedy and drama. The movie provides an interesting look into the coffee business, and the different coffee shop owners' strategies for success. Watching the characters going head-to-head as they try to become the coffee shop king makes for an exciting and amusing story.

Overall, Coffee Wars is an amazing watch. It is a funny and interesting movie that captures the spirit of coffee shops and the competition that they face. The characters are lovable and the jokes are hilarious. If you're looking for a unique, comedic watch, this movie is highly recommended.

If you like Notting Hill or Four Weddings etc then this film is for you...goofily funny and just a good time was had all round.

Great cast, good script,well shot and just quirkily funny and I'm still smiling about it now several weeks after I first saw it.

Kudos to all narrative filmmakers who use their tools to make a movie that tries to do good in the world. May there be more folks in Hollywood who follow this lead. Coffee Wars will make you laugh and make you think. With any luck, it might even encourage you to try to save this planet one cup of coffee at a time. I hope so. All the revenue made from this film will be given to environmental charities, animal charities, and organizations dedicated to the betterment of this world and those of us who want to keep living off of it for generations to come. It is incumbent upon all of us to try to make this world a better place. Watch the film. It might teach you a thing or two, and if not, you might just have a few hearty laughs.
