The Beat Beneath My Feet

Even though the story is cliche and you kind of know where the story is heading, it is simple and sweet! I like the relationship between Steve and Tom. Tom may be a nerd but he Knows how to pester and annoy an adult like a kid. Love this movie. It feels short! The good ending was rather abrupt tho!!

I like movies about music, and while this film offered no surprises in the story it was still enjoyable due to the strong performances from the two male leads. Luke Perry is a great fit for his role as the former rock star with a tragic past. Nick Galitzine does very well as the shy teen who just wants to play music, even though he has to hide his love of music from his mom.

The music and song writing are not very deep but fit the character who is just learning to play. Perry and Galitzine do their own singing and playing in the film, and while they may not be ready for music careers they both perform well within the limits of their roles.

Great British entertainment.

No guns No car chases No screeching cars

Just a good honest movie that touches the heart strings - literally.

The Beat Beneath My Feet is a charming musical dramaedy about a teenage social outcast named Tom (Nicholas Galitzine) who discovers his rowdy neighbor (Luke Perry) is actually a former rock & roll legend who fakes his own death to escape financial debt. I loved this coming-of-age film because it thoughtfully shows the struggles of growing up and finding yourself. It is definitely relatable to young adults and teens who have ever struggled with fitting in and I especially loved how Tom's passion of music helped him reach his full-potential. It also included an amazingly up- beat soundtrack that was an exceptional addition to the film. This inspirational indie flick is definitely worth the watch if you haven't already had the chance to see it.

I watched "The Beat Beneath My Feet" last night at the Berlin Film Festival and it was great. It's a beautiful story, executed with style, and the three leads deliver strong performances. In particular, Luke Perry of "Beverly Hills 90210" fame excels as a down-on-his luck musician with a dark secret who hides on a council estate to avoid being jailed for tax evasion. He's extremely moving and memorable as a damaged soul seeking redemption who finds healing through a dorky young neighbor, played by convincing newcomer - Nicholas Galitzine - who is hell bent on being a rock star despite his crippling shyness. The cool soundtrack, in the vein of Coldplay, underscores the story beautifully as well as the animated sequences that highlight the central character's fears and fantasies. "The Beat Beneath My Feet" is a heartfelt, entertaining, feel-good comedy from the UK that I'd highly recommend. Thumbs up to the team behind the film.
