Love This Movie !
This film is so funny! The music is great and just watching it really makes you feel as if you've been transported to the 60's. Everyone needs to watch this film!
The Boat That Rocked, 2009
This is an entertaining comedy and a tribute to the spirit of rock & roll. Makes me wish I lived back in the '60s.
