Kids In Love (2016)

Kids In love - 2016

Jack is a gap-year student in London who isn’t convinced that he wants the life that has been mapped out for him. He meets a young woman, who introduces him to the bohemian side of the city. - Synopsis sourced from Wikipedia. 
Kids in love is a coming of age/indie film in which is the most up to date film I could review. This film is cleverly filmed to pull the heartstrings of the audience, being teenagers of both genders. Aged between 16-20 as it raises issues in which could only be permitted by this age range. It has a niche audience but includes issues which is very clearly addressed that the audience are badly effected by. One of the reasons I like this film so much in terms of the plot is that this is a film which is to show to the teenagers' parents exactly what passes through their head and how they feel about it, yet the film is aimed at teenagers. Which creates more aggression as there is still not a film that can express to an older generation what it is like for teenagers to feel in modern society. 

Who stars in the film?


  • Will Poulter as Jack - Who stars in many films that are aimed at people a similar age. Is an actor known for his unique facial features. 
  • Alma Jodorowsky as Evelyn - An actress who is not known in the film industry in the UK but from the institutions decision was perfect for the part.
  • Sebastian de Souza as Milo - This actor has been stared in various different films and TV shows which address similar issues and issues that adolescents tackle, therefore people who watch these will still be able to connect with this character. 
  • Cara Delevingne as Viola - Delevingne is an upcoming actress which is widely known by adolescents as a model, role model and well known actress. For this film she is not a big character but from the poster she is one of the most visual, showing she is a USP (Unique Selling Point) of the film.



The trailer is 1 minute 45 seconds, which is a reasonable trailer time. It includes various amounts of shots to keep it engaging for the audience. It also tries to explain the narrative in order.
