Lick

Lick and the entire Stage Dive series is an all time favorite of mine and I had a little trepidation about casting these beloved characters, so I was really excited when I saw how perfectly cast David, Ev, and Mal were. Kudos to the casting director and the actors for understanding the assignment! Jimmy and Ben are harder to tell at this point, but both have promise (Jimmy, who is a total DB in this first book/movie but gets the best story of all in his book, has mega-fans that will have a LOT to say!) I really, really, really want to see the other 3 books brought to life now that I watched this excellent adaptation. More Stage Dive, please!

I found this yesterday while looking for something to watch on Passionflix and immediately became interested after seeing that it's an adaptation of a book(I'm an avid reader).

The chemistry between David and Ev is palpable even while they're, sometimes awkwardly, getting to know each other. Kudos to the lead actors for keeping their performances grounded and realistic.

While everyone did their part, my favorite character just might be Mal(the drummer). His 'go with the flow/take it as it comes' demeanor was a refreshing additive whenever something seemed too stressful. He was also a great sounding board and voice of reason when needed all while appearing a little goofy. With that awesome mane, Mal looks like the quintessential 80's rock band member.

The storyline was interesting enough to keep me engaged and entertained while also making me want to read the book to get all of the details that were left out.

I'll definitely be watching it again before and after I've read the book.

Lick is the first book I read by author Kylie Scott and loved it. The news that it was being made into a Passionflix film was exciting news. I'm happy to report that the movie script stayed as true as possible to the book. The casting was fantastic, the music was good for non-musician actors, and I enjoyed every minute. There were pacing issues during certain scenes, but trying to fit an entire novel into a movie time limit is difficult. I think they did the best they could. I would love to see the other books in this series be made into films also! Thoroughly enjoyed watching! My husband enjoyed watching also. This is rated R, so keep that in mind.

I was hesitant to watch this movie as I really enjoyed the book and movie adaptations are generally disappointing. This movie followed the book closely - thank god - and did a good job of telling the story visually.

Both lead actors did a great job of bringing the characters to life, kudos to them both. The male lead character seems to be a really good actor, I hope we see more of him and the female lead gave the depth to the character that could easily been down-played. The settings were perfect.

I hope to see adaptations of the rest of this series of books if they are done as well as this one.

Passionflix helped make this book come alive with film adaption and they executed it perfectly.

The casting was perfect, although I was expecting to see Jimmy in more suit type clothing but the rest of them are portrayed as accurate as possible.

They stayed true to the characters and the mannerisms. I think Travis and Brooke did an excellent job as David and Evelyn. I would have loved to see him with long hair though and have him cut it as stated in the book. Would have brought a more dramatic response to certain events.

I reread Lick all the time and i will say, I will now rewatch the movie probably just as much.

Definitely recommend, you will love it especially if you loved the book!

I hope they bring the rest of the series to screen as well!
