the voice ruins it for me

Rating: 1/10 (24 April 2016)

First let me say I really do not want to trash anyone or anything. That being said, I have to say the voice used for Frankie, whom ever it is, is keeping me from enjoying this movie. I had been debating with myself as to whether I wanted to continue watching.
I was born and raised in the 50's and 60's, and this is nowhere near Frankie Valli's voice. What a completely wrong choice for this in my opinion. I am also an ex vocalist/entertainer myself, and had been for over 40 years, and the sound track contains a very high, unusually shrill vocal portraying Frankie, and although Frankie did have an unusually high voice for the time, he had a pleasing, not ear shattering voice, nor was it shrill.
I also found too much concentration on the "hoodlum" aspect, and not enough on the music and the music experience itself. I know this is most likely not going to be considered a positive review, but it is not meant in any way to be mean spirited, nor in any other way, except as an opinion.
Enough said, and I am sorry. <3
