This is a coming of age storyline that you've seen in one form or another for decades. It takes a truly unique voice to make yet another one worth watching.

The acting is good, and the firecracker script has some excellent ideas.

It is a whirlwind of delight --- attractive actors, stunning couture, spectacular sets and outrageous parties. It's a feast for the eyes. But what really makes this dramedy work is the acting.

Admittedly I did not have high hopes after reading the summary of this film on Netflix. AND although, as other reviewers have noted, this movie can be a bit cheesy and predictable, it has still quickly become one of my favorites. Despite what is, at times, a somewhat unbelievable storyline, the fantastic music and charming acting make this movie a definite worth-watch. My favorite thing about this film is the amazing chemistry between Tena and Treadaway; their effortless and natural banter leads to a believable attraction, even when other plot points lack believability. Overall, I would highly recommend this film to music buff and romantics alike. Definitely worth a watch!

The one thing I love about the British film industry is that it's not afraid to take some risks. They fund independent projects which don't always make a lot of money, but they don't care, or at least that isn't there number one priority. They don't reproduce a set of Hollywood- idealized plots, and they don't make sequels or prequels as if they're life depended on it. What they do is even better - they make something original. And originality and quality is what we have with Tonight You're Mine – its quirky, its British and its bloody good.It tells the story of two feuding rock stars who are handcuffed together for 24 hours at T-in-the-Park where they are both due to perform. Obviously a whole host of random drunken debauchery ensues and we see how, in the midst of the madness of brilliant music and classic British weather, their relationship develops from one of feuding and bickering to friendship and romance. Maybe not love, because come on, we British aren't deluded, you don't fall in love with someone in 24 hours, but you can fall 'in'. Big difference. This is something the film does rather brilliantly – it depicts the 'in'.If you would like to read the rest of my thoughts on this film then visit this site (filmrambler.blogspot.co.uk)

For anyone who loves music and music festivals this film is a treat. It's a great premise; make a film about a love story during a actual huge outdoor music festival. You have to keep in mind that the logistics of doing this had to have been a b**ch. This is not a cult film, or a classic, or a carefully crafted under control movie. It is what it is: a simple rock and roll fantasy, probably sketched out in general and then written as filming progressed to take advantage of what was going on at the event. I applaud the filmmakers for having the b*lls to attempt this, and then coming away with a sweet story with fun characters and a good feel of the festival spirit.

You Instead is as close as it gets to being at a music festival without actually being there. Right from the start the audience is wholly immersed in the festival atmosphere. This is, in part, down to the crew shooting the entirety of the film at the T in the Park event in Scotland and featuring the artists performing there (Biffy Clyro and Joe Mango to name two).Director David Mackenzie took the two actors and their supporting cast and literally dropped them in it. Up to their knees in mud at times and performing amongst a genuine crowd of revellers from start to finish. Luke Treadaway and Natalia Tena are more than convincing as frontmen of their respective bands, largely helped by Tena's burgeoning career as a musician with her group Molotov Jukebox.You Instead takes brilliant advantage of an environment where the rules of daily life no longer apply. The result is a film populated with larger than life characters in a world we rarely get a glimpse of, and it's a great fun place to spend an hour and a half.
