An entertaining enough musical romp, the script is certainly sharp enough to warrant a watch; unfortunately, the actors never really seem to get under the skin of their characters, which makes the whole thing feel ever-so-slightly stilted. That said, it doesn't detract too much from what is basically solid entertainment.

billy connolly annoys the living hell out of me and stephen rea bugged me in this, too but bill nighy is awesome as the lead singer. very different role for him.

Pretty good.

Enjoyable, but feels somewhat contrived as they keep banging on about how great "The Fruits" were, yet manage to stink through most of the movie......
