Synopsis
A 24-year-old music critic gets romantically involved with members of an indie band she decides to publicize.
Moviegoers are saying
This 2011-set indie romantic comedy has audiences split between loving its authentic coming-of-age charm and questioning some of its character choices, with reviewers particularly praising its Joanna Newsom soundtrack and Devon Bostick's magnetic performance. Critics appreciate director Levack's ability to capture the 'uglier pieces' of youth while delivering genuinely funny moments, though some find the protagonist's inconsistent behavior frustrating.

correctly identifies the cute indie rock boy as a thanos level villain
David SimsMar 25, 2026Not the central point of the movie, but I love how at the end of the day, we're all just trying to get away from where we're from. The thought of kids from Toronto feeling the need to escape would have been absurd to me as a Maritime high schooler wanting to escape TO…
Amanda the JediSep 4, 2025FINALLY, a movie about how life-altering it was to hear Joanna Newsom's "Have One on Me" for the first time. so funny and knowing and true, rom-com of the year with a bullet and a killer soundtrack to boot. wonderful wonderful film.

a movie so powerfully situated in the year 2011 that a pair of Toms platform cork wedges are heavily featured

I’m pissed. She kept trying to get with and fawning over a guy with the mental capacity of a 5 year old and tried to sleep with him twice if it wasn’t bad enough he couldn’t get it up for her twice. No.
allison likedMile End Kicksthis was better than i was expecting. first off, i’m obsessed with the cast, such good casting. secondly, i really like that the film focuses around one album, i love jagged little pill, and love the idea of a music critic chasing the glory of where the album was written.
jam jammy jambam likedMile End KicksFor a film centered on music the songs had to have been great, and TOPS did not disappoint. I felt really bad for Grace AND for the people that have to be around her; she can be incredibly frustrating sometimes. It ends on a really nice note and Barbie is so gorgeous.

Okay first of all NOT BAD. It coudlve been better but its okay. Second of all I HATE HOW THEY GAVE MORE CHEVY AND GRACE MOMENTS CUZ IDGAF I NEEDED MORE ARCHIE AND GRACE. HOW DARE THEY END IT LIKE THAT I MEAN YES FINALLY BUT WHY. Lastly archie was gripping tf out of that vibrator.
cassius casanova is "meh" onMile End Kickswanted to love this so badly but the main character being inconsiderate & insufferable made me feel nothing. i loved the dedication to make the time period feel exactly like 2011 , it was the biggest redeeming quality of a film that only made me laugh a couple of times
logan likedMile End KicksMile End Kicks is a film steeped in newfound independence and indie rock. It reminds me of my own time being 21 and on my own- just without the rock. It's scary, jarring, and confusing, but it's also such a potent time, a feeling that Kicks nails.
- Taylor Winters likedMile End Kicks
It’s a good movie but I just found the main character to be very unlikeable. She makes awful decisions. And while it felt very fair for her character, I was frustrated with her throughout.

Nemo likedMile End KicksDude. Watch this movie. I went to see it with this chick I was really into, got dumped at the end, and STILL LOVED IT. Mile End Kicks‼️

It’s a devastating, relatable performance by Ferreira.

Ferreira is a believable and sympathetic protagonist, bringing a vulnerability to Grace that makes the viewer root for her even as she blows up her life for reasons even she doesn’t seem to understand.

Ultimately, Mile End Kicks is a messy, heartfelt portrait of youth and creative ambition.
