Get a Life, alright!

A hilarious film, recreating a Bollywood-esque theme in a non-Bollywood world. Director Joy Hopwood has left her signature mark in this quirky, over-the-top romantic comedy; the story clearly making the distinction of what is morally right and wrong across a number of social contexts.

Dilshan Rain as Adarsh Singh was very convincing as the "villainous" brother, leaving audiences seething. And Aileen Huynh as Sarah Chen, gave another great performance, exuding warmth and strength in her role as supportive friend and diversity advocate.

A feel-good story that highlights the need for diversity within the Australian entertainment industry.

Brilliant local work from emerging Australian based filmmaker Joy Hopwood. The cast works really well together and features a wide range of diverse and interesting characters. I really liked the songs created for this film, great lyrics and well executed.

It was great to see such a variety of actors come together for this project, there are quite a few stars in there that will be worth watching out for in the future. Special shout out to Aileen Huynh who stole the show.

Admittedly this production is working with quite a limited budget but it's incredible what the team has been able to create. Well worth a look to support the local industry.

What happens when you have a rom-com with no real romance, no real comedy, and a script that feels like it was written in one afternoon? You get Get a Life, Alright!

This film tries to sell itself as a charming behind-the-scenes tale of fame and falling in love, but it lands with all the finesse of a high school drama assignment. The dialogue is cringeworthy, the plot painfully thin, and the characters - if you can even call them that - are so one-dimensional they might as well be cardboard cutouts. Every twist is predictable, every moment drenched in cliché.

It's baffling how something with such a strong claim to diversity and industry insight could feel so hollow. There's no tension, no spark, and absolutely no reason to care. The title says it all - this film needs to get a life, alright. Or at least a rewrite.

Had a good time hearing all the songs. The actors had good chemistry and the pacing was fast.

It nice to see the director put her heart into this. Her sense of humour shows in the film. Anyone who wants a quick romantic comedy will like this.

Nick, an aspiring actor, delivers flowers by day and works at his father's restaurant by night. A chance meeting with Tessa, the star of Nick's favourite TV show leads him on a journey to follow one's dreams in life and love.

Joy Hopwood delivers a truly uplifting story that not only focuses on diversity, but also highlights the challenges facing the entertainment industry today. The genuine connection between the cast shines through and leaves you with that warm and fuzzy feeling inside. Great songs, catchy tunes and a lovely reminder to enjoy life and cherish the special moments that bring us together.
