I actually liked this movie because I grew up in the era of M온라인카지노추천 and so many one hit wonders who have long since vanished from the spotlight. That’s what makes this movie so endearing to me. Is it the best acted, strongest script? No. But it captures a feeling of “what if” and one person who still believes in them. It has a few laughs and some enjoyable moments like when they play their hit again for the first time in over a decade. I also love the cameo by A Flock of Seagulls as a wink and nod to all those bands from that era. There are worse ways to spend an hour and a half so check it out if you’re from this era too, as it captures the nostalgia I was looking for.
