We Are Your Friends

We Are Your Friends

Drama, Music, Romance

Caught between a forbidden romance and the expectations of his friends, aspiring DJ Cole Carter attempts to find the path in life that leads to fame and fortune.


The critical consensus

Zac Efron makes a convincing bid for movie stardom — and Ratajkowski proves she’s more than just a pretty face — in this flawed but fitfully entertaining film, even if it all goes a bit Pete Tong at the end.

***(*)(*)David Hughes, Empire Online, 24/08/2015

We Are Your Friends is charmingly sincere as it rummages around the realms of youthful possibility, emerging with the kind of altered perspective that comes with age.

***(*)(*)Katherine McLaughlin, The List, 26/08/2015

Zac Efron is a super-hot DJ searching for credibility amid the music-video cliches and Entourage-style bro-love.

*(*)(*)(*)(*)Peter Bradshaw, The Guardian, 27/08/2015

Zac Efron stars in a surprisingly dark and self-conscious drama.

***(*)(*)Geoffrey MacNab, The Independent, 28/08/2015

Aggressively predictable, but with a decent, fist-pumping finale.

David Jenkins, Little White Lies, 27/08/2015

This laughable Magic Mike wannabe for the clubbing set.

**(*)(*)(*)Alistair Harkness, The Scotsman, 29/08/2015

Efron puts in a smart performance as a would-be DJ facing new frontiers.
