Better than I remember. Loved every minute watching this!
Fun watch that follows the rise and fall of a small town band and the success that follows their one-hit wonder
Well written well acted. A fun flick about a fictional band.
The best song to ever come out of a movie
A family friendly good time. Fun and simple story. Just so much fun. The theme song will be stuck in your head for days.
For me, this movie depicts pure joy. Great retro music and 60’s atmosphere.A feel good movie from beginning to end!
Very cute and enjoyable movie, often funny, great performances, fun to watch
Really fun movie, good to watch with family
Hilariously engaging with such natural dialogue and a catchy as hell original song. Hanks cooked well with his 1st of 2 movies he directed.
Great film for any music lover, seen it once in my guitar class in middle school and rewatched it countless times since
