Please avoid. This was awful. 3 out of 3 found this helpful. A rare find that cements the credibility of the current generation's ability to produce harmonious tunes with a political trajectory. This causes a lack of cohesion, as does the choice to often layer the actual Gambino songs, non-diegetically, above the lead character's diegetic singing - which creates a seriously strange effect that I can't quite explain.

That depends, if you're a Glover/Gambino fan then go check it out, but if you don't like him, or are not a fan of his, you might want to steer clear from this one.

I liked this film, but I'm not letting my fandom get in the way of how I genuinely see this film as a film. Donald Glover's acting is decent in this, just nothing interesting or memorable is done with his character aside from his music, Rihanna is extremely hollow & wooden in her performance & I don't understand why anyone would cast her in a movie no matter how high the payday is, and the talents of the brilliant Leticia Wright are completely abandoned in this movie due to lazy and uninteresting story writing. In some ways, 'Guava Island (2019)' is a feature film, albeit a very short one.

Its actual construction is a bit bizarre, as it bounces from being a fairly serious drama to an incredibly off-beat musical from scene to scene. One day, Deni, who works part time at the docks and part time as the local radio station's house musician whose passionate music is extremely popular among the islanders, decides to hold a secret concert in the evening to make everyone happy, if only for a day. The music video for "Feels Like Summer" was released on September 2, 2018.

It had so much potential but ends abruptly with no real solution. All I knew is Hiro Murai was going to direct it which was a great sign, Glover would be in it, and he's bringing Rihanna along for the ride, how can he mess this up.
