Let's not be too harsh
23 December 2018
I loved the dance hall sequences which looked very genuine and not staged. An excellent black and white type newsreel dealing with an innocent and burgeoning British rock scene. It had to begin somewhere and this movie is ground zero. Early American movies dealing in 50s rock and roll history were pretty awful too in regards to plot and acting. If anything this movie shows us how amateurish early Brit rock really was. Very easy to take a condescending overview from a 2018 stand point. Just sit back and enjoy the humour of it all. I yearn for this era. Rock was so new and exciting.
