A delightful indie film!

Warmed-Over Krautrock is a delightful, warm and personal indie film. The dialogue is smart and topical, the cast of characters share great chemistry and the cinematography shows off parts of Los Angeles you don't often get to see on film. It's a great movie for anyone who loves music, the record store scene, and slice-of-life stories.

Terrible, stiff, amateur, flat unconvncing, dervative, dull

An attempt at High Fidelity put on by a community theatre company. This comes across like they filmed the rough draft script read through before the writers made put any content in it, or before they hired a writer. Just terrible. Unwatchable. 2 points for the camera and sound team capturing an image and dialog. zero for anything else

Great for the record shop nerd in all of us

Part love letter to critically endangered indie record shops, part homage to LA, and part a character study of folks you don't know but probably should, there's plenty here to like, with quality photography and deft direction.
