Not a big fan of musicals, but this is more of a biopic

Rating: 9/10 (17 June 2014)

Wasn't sure if I wanted to see this film as I am not a big musical fan (only two musical films I liked were grease and sweeny todd) but I have now seen it 5 times working as security for copyright theft, surprisingly funny, the audience reaction has been excellent. The direction from Clint Eastwood is inspired, has a slight feel of a scorcese film, mainly due to the forth wall been broken by characters talking directly to camera, but I assume this is due to the way the stage production worked. Strong acting by all but Christopher Walken is a scene stealer, all his scenes are the most memorable. Overall a film worth seeing whether your a fan of frankie valli or not as there is probably songs in there you love not knowing they were performed by the four seasons. Must say after seeing it 5 times the audience has left either singing or doing a little dance lol. No I do not work for the studio just for a security firm so no allegiences.
