We just watched Highest 2 Lowest on Apple TV, and what a letdown. As music industry veterans, we couldn’t help but cringe at how badly this film misunderstands how the industry actually handles extortion, negotiation, and label operations. Instead of real-world tension, we get overblown drama, decisions no actual label or artist would make, and a script that feels totally out of sync with reality.On top of that, the soundtrack is all over the place—blasting mismatched tracks that pull you out of every major scene. Instead of adding to the tension, it ruins it! The result is a film that’s less an insider’s look and more a Hollywood fantasy gone off the rails.If you’ve ever worked in music or just appreciate realism, Highest 2 Lowest will definitely test your patience. Did the plot holes and soundtrack drive you crazy too? Let us know in the comments, and subscribe for more honest reviews on the latest Apple TV releases.
