Modern Life Is Rubbish film review: A predictable twist and overuse of syrupy montages

Liam (Josh Whitehouse) and Nat (Freya Mavor) have broken up.

He is an obnoxious wannabe rock star while she is a graphic designer who dreams of designing album covers.

As they divide their CD collection, Gill hits rewind to show us key moments in their 10-year relationship.

The excellent soundtrack features Radiohead, Lou Reed and Spiritualized (but weirdly no Blur, whose 1993 album shares the name of the film).

But a contrived plot with a predictable twist and overuse of syrupy montages undermine its rock and roll credentials.
