Cannot Compare to the Live version

Rating: 7/10 (15 November 2014)

I am very disappointed with this adaptation the Jersey Boys. The play had a lot of dark moments but never lacked in energy. One of the biggest draws is the music and dancing, both lack in the film. The side chat is spot on. There are few pivotal scenes that were omitted from film. "Beggin'" and "Fallen Angel" were absent from the movie version. I really missed the dancing. There was a big Broadway Finale that showcased the few cast members that were actually in the live version of Jersey Boys. Christopher Walken was amazing and portrayed a good mobster and proved that he can dance. The finale made watching the whole movie worth it. Take my advice and grab this movie from a Redbox as buying it will only disappoint you.
