Read The Scripts Film Review: Is Hulu Rye Lane a Good Film?

Updated: Aug 22, 2023


Hulu Original Film Rye Lane is a interesting movie to watch if you like British Romantic, Comedy Drama this is for you. The movie starts off with Dom crying in a public bathroom stall over his Ex Girlfriend and her New Boyfriend and this is when we see Yas walks in the bathroom and go into the stall right next to Dom and she ask him if he was alright and he said he was fine. When Yas got done and was about to walk out Dom tells her that he is trying to have a private moment and Yas said to him that it's not that private and I thought this was a weird way to have Dom and Yas meet but I like it. The both of them are at this Art Exhibition about people mouths that their friend Nathan set up and this is when Dom and Yas meet each other face to face and I thought the conversation they had was weird but good. I also like when Nathan told Dom to buy one of his picture because he thinks that's how he is going to get others to buy I thought that was funny.


We see Dom and Yas walking around in Rye Lane market place and they talk about Dom job for a little bit and Yas tells Dom she wanted to be a school principal when she grew up. The both of them are back outside and Dom gets to know more about Yas and how she wants to design costumes and this conversation they had was also good. Dom and Yas talk a little bit more and that's when Dom tells Yas about his Ex Girlfriend Gia who cheated on him with his best friend Eric, so Dom is going to meet Gia and Eric by himself but Yas goes to help Dom and this was a funny scene I like how they was making Gia jealous and I really like watching Yas help out Dom this was a good moment and it made me laugh.


Dom and Yas go to get something to eat and they stop at this park and the both of them talk about other stuff and we got to know a little bit about Yas Ex Boyfriend Jules and how he doesn't like tourists being on a boat and how that was a red flag for her and I thought that part was funny. So we see Dom and Yas go to this bar and she tells Dom about how she broke up with her Ex Jules, after Yas is done telling the story that's when she decided to go get back her Tribe Called Quest record from Jules place and I thought this scene was also good. Yas and Dom go to Jules place but her key doesn't work so they decided to go to his parents house to get a key. I did enjoy this scene the interaction between Dom, Jules moms and some of the family friends was good and funny but when Dom got caught going through Jules moms stuff their reaction was funny. Yas tells Dom why she been hanging out with him and she even turned down a job interview because she really likes being with him. So Jules moms didn't have a key so they gave Yas a moped so she and Dom can go to this Karaoke Bar to get a key from this guy name Mona and when they show up at this bar Mona tells Yas and Dom to sing a song and I really like this scene it was funny and I enjoy it.


After they got done Yas kiss Dom and they got the key so the both of them go to Jules place and we see Dom and Yas looking around Jules place and that's when they hear someone coming in and it was Jules and his new girlfriend Tabby and I like the interaction between all 4 characters. Dom was trying to convince Jules to give back Yas record and that's when Jules tells Dom more about Yas and how he was the one that broken up with her. After that conversation Dom gets the record and he got into a fight with Jules but he let's Dom and Yas leave when one of his art pieces gets broken and this scene was funny and good. Dom tries to understands why Yas lied to him so they get into an argument and Yas said somethings that hurt Dom feelings and we see Dom walk away and Yas puts her Tribe Called Quest record in the trash. I thought this was a good scene the argument between Dom and Yas was also good and you can see that Dom really likes Yas but the things she said did hurt him and you can see that Yas was also sad about what happened between the both of them.


A couple of months have passed and we see Dom and Yas dating other people and trying to enjoy their lives but they are still thinking about each other. We see Yas get a job as a designer and Dom moves out of his parents house and this scene was good watching the both of them going through different changes in their lives but still thinking about each other was cool and seeing Yas buying a new Low End Theory record was also good. We see Dom, his Ex and some of his friends at Nathan's new Art Exhibition about people butts and Dom gets a call from Yas who is on a tourists boat and she tells Dom to meet her when she gets off the boat. Dom runs to meet Yas and we he see her the both of them kiss and that's how the movie ends.


So this was a fun film to watch it might not be for everyone but I enjoy it for what it was. I like how different things was going on in the background while watching Dom and Yas traveling from one place to another. I did like how they show off Rye Lane market but how they jump from one scene to the next one look a little off to me. I also like some of the jokes in this film they made me laugh and I really like the Karaoke Bar scene having Dom and Yas singing Salt-N-Pepa song Shoop was funny. The restaurant scene with Dom, Yas, Gia and Eric was good and the Cast and Crew also did a really good job making this film.


I would recommend to watch this film if you want to watch something that's funny and silly and if you like British Romantic Comedy this might be the film for you I will give this a 7/10
