Welcome to the Film Pie! Brisbane based film critic Matt Toomey has reviewed thousands of movies since 1996. See what's out now, or browse the review archive.

In the Heights (out Jun 24) is a film based on the Tony Award winning musical from 2008 of the same name. The narrative is a touch “light” in that there are no real villains, not much suspense, and a formulaic love story. Still, it has a wonderful, infectious energy thanks to the cast, locations, songs and themes. Grade: B+.
