How We Became the Biggest Band is a fun, if somewhat formulaic, take on the rise of a pop group. The film does a decent job of showcasing the highs and lows of fame, but at times, it feels predictable. The characters are relatable, yet they sometimes fall into clichéd archetypes. The music is catchy ... Show more >> How We Became the Biggest Band is a fun, if somewhat formulaic, take on the rise of a pop group. The film does a decent job of showcasing the highs and lows of fame, but at times, it feels predictable. The characters are relatable, yet they sometimes fall into clichéd archetypes. The music is catchy, and the performances are energetic, but the plot lacks the depth that could have made it truly memorable. It's enjoyable, especially for younger audiences, but it may not resonate as strongly with those seeking a more nuanced narrative. Overall, it’s a light-hearted film that’s perfect for a girls’ night in, but it doesn’t quite hit all the right notes. Show less
