I Like Movies director Chandler Levack's Mile End Kicks is a bright romantic comedy starring Barbie Ferreira as Grace, a young music critic who moves to Montreal to figure out life and love.

Critics Consensus

A loosely structured yet emotionally sharp coming-of-age film, Mile End Kicks captures early 20s aimlessness with authentic charm, lifted by Barbie Ferreira's natural lead turn and Chandler Levack's confident, unsentimental direction.

Chandler Levack's second film as director and screenwriter is based on her own experiences, which gives it an air of authenticity that is not easy to achieve in productions of this kind. [Full review in Spanish]

The best thing about it is how it evokes the time and place of the music scene in Montreal in 2011.

This coming-of-age dramedy is a release of pent-up messages to young women, delivered with sharp humor and genuine laugh-out-loud moments.

Vibes of this movie reminds me of an early 2010s type movie. Follows a girl trying to figure out life. By the end of the movie, I was not a fan of the main character, but was glad to see she finally made some good choices in the end
