Owen Gleiberman Chief Film Critic Music movies are having a moment — if, indeed, they ever stopped having one. Take the pop-music biopic.

Jermaine Dupri. “Somebody had to do it.”But beyond all the booty-shaking before “twerking” was even a word, the “Me So Horny” rapper sums up the cultural impact that made Freaknik — as Atlanta rapper Lil Jon describes — “the greatest black gathering in America.”“It was our Woodstock,” says Campbell.

When is a collection of dreamy, romantic, forlorn, and crestfallen moods just that and not actually much of a movie other than a series of sequences that sum up those big melancholy feelings with achingly dreamy music? Oooh, ooh! “The Greatest Hits,” filmmaker Ned Benson’s latest feature-length effort, would like to field this one. Built one too many many groan-worthy romantic clichés like the relationship breakup phrase, “it’s time to move on,” taken to an implausibly silly genre and literal level, Benson uses a flimsy neurological time travel conceit to tentatively move forward and heal his hopelessly heartbroken protagonist’s heart.

A live-action Teen Titans movie is officially happening!

Peter Debruge Chief Film Critic Music has an almost magical way of transporting us back to the moment in our lives when we heard it: the pop song that underscored your first kiss, the one that played at your graduation and so on. In mopey, dopey YA weepie “The Greatest Hits,” writer-director Ned Benson takes that idea as literally as possible, treating specific tunes as triggers that launch Harriet (Lucy Boynton) back into her past, blowing her away — like that seated guy in the classic Maxell campaign — into the tragic former relationship with hunky Max (square-jawed future Superman, David Corenswet), who died in a car crash.

Lucy Boynton debuted her new movie The Greatest Hits at SXSW this week and the official trailer is now available online!
