That Thing You Do!

Director Tom Hanks
Genres Drama
Run time 103 mins Certificate PG

18th December 2011

An okay film with a good soundtrack (especially the jazz) but the story is a bit fairy tale.

I've played at a lot of gigs and it's not really the way it's portrayed in this film. Sure the backstage scenes are pretty life-like but the story...

However, it's worth a watch. There are a lot of other films that are really bad but this is not one of them.

If you like the idea of young people making music and doing good give it a watch. You won't be disappointed.
