The movie may be accused of stereotyping Italian Americans. We saw this accusation leveled against Saturday Night Fever when the latter came out in 1977.
Nonetheless, we have an accurate representation of 4 Jersey boys who were headed for a life of crime in the mob and managed to turn it all around and achieve success as the highly popular The Four Seasons.
The movie also shows that success and money aren't always everything, as we see the trials, tribulations, heartbreak and even tragedy befall our group.
The group of men who are not big stars are absolutely fabulous here as they beautifully capture their beginnings, success, failures and ultimate triumph in the music world.
