User Reviews

If you like the 80's, you'll love this movie!

If you like the fashion and the music of the 80's, you'll love G! It doesn't get more 80's than this.

Another reason to see this movie is Olle Ljungströms great synth cover on Velvet Underground's "Venus in furs" (written by Lou Reed). It's fantastic!
