Set in an abandoned school, this is a Hallmark style rom-com and features the a chaotic Zumba session and a very complicated handshake. Also the most dramatic music, in the least dramatic moment! Set on a cruise ship, this is a superhero horror and features the inner monologues of one of the characters and the most intense use of a musical key change.
Also starring the Bad Idea Pandas! Set in Ipswich, this is a time travelling musical and features an interruption from a cheerleading squad.
Also starring Samantha Sunshine with her dark suggestions and Sidekick Sid, who's always trying to get in on the action! Set on the streets of Croydon, this is a monster epic movie and features an amazing 00s boy band song and the most product placement in a single scene.
Also a very romantic pottery scene! Set at Josephs School, this is a reunion movie and features some brutal advice from grandma and the most grandiose entrance from a background character. Also a very inappropriately timed gameshow! Set on Southend Pier, this is a high stakes heist and features a disruptive haircut and the most inappropriately timed pratfall. Also starring a character who can summon musical fanfares! Set in a warehouse in East London, this is a spy thriller and features the longest greeting and the silliest reason for a parade.
Also starring High Q who has a Haiku for every situation! Set on a field in a farm, this is a fantasy film and features the most innovative use of an umbrella and the most spontaneous musical numbers.
Set in an Australian fire station, this is a 70s disaster movie and features a brilliant green screen hot air balloon and the worst metaphors in a movie. Also starring Marcus the loud mime! I'm not sure where the problems come from. As writer and director one has to assume that it is all down to Woolcock for creating something that doesn't function but I do wonder if someone has taken her in hand and tried to shift her vision into something else.
I'm being generous to suggest this as I have no basis, but the unsuccessful blend of styles does feel like a dramatic film that has been spread into a comedy with lots of music and bright colours into the cinematography. I'm not sure but wherever it came from, it is here and it jus doesn't fly. A shame really because at times it is an interesting film but for the vast majority it just doesn't.
The cast are lumbered with this but mostly they do OK despite the characters handed to them to carry off. Nobody was bad, but some struggled to make their characters work and ended up just going with the weird flow around them.
So, what does that leave Mischief Night as? Well it is a mix between Kidulthood, Adulthood and East is East with a bit more comedy thrown in. The blend is difficult to pull off and Woolcock cannot manage to make it happen, leaving a film that is serious but never lets you take it seriously while also being a comedy that never makes you laugh all reliant on a character-driven narrative where you're never really with the characters. Has its moments but doesn't make anything of them.
