Wild Rose (2018)
7/10
Feel good but formulaic
4 April 2021
I like country music and so I thought I was sure to like the movie. And I did like it but, to be honest, I didn't really love it. The storyline has a bit too many coincidences. Also, the protagonist is a selfish & obnoxious person who is surrounded by people who are unbelievably kind and forgiving, making one wonder if she truly deserves to have any of these people in her life!

Jessie Buckley is quite good but it's Julie Walters who steals the show with a face like a blessing and a beautiful accent!

Overall, it is a nice feel good kind of movie but its plot is a bit too generic & convenient. Also, the music could have been a whole lot better. Some tracks are good but I expected more since it is practically a musical.
