Entertain-ably Fun!!!

Rating: Null/10 (11 January 2000)

Tom Hanks is more than a great actor. As Writer, Director, & Actor in "That Thing You Do" he displays his wide range of talents. This movie can only be discribed as ENTERTAINABLY FUN! The story follows 4, very talented, guys in a garage band, who get their big break with their
One-Hit-Wonder, "That Thing You Do" This very catchy song propells them into fame faster then you could sign a contract, and then reveals the sad and realistic misfortunes of that fame, and the fall that sometimes follows. This was a great film that gave it's audience a peek behind the music business and into the lives of these 4 ambitious boys. You can't help but cheer for them as you watch their song rise to the top of the charts. Tom Everett Scott and Liv Tyler are the ones to watch in this film, with great supporting roles by Johnathon Schaech and Steve Zahn. And Tom Hanks is always a welcomed face to see that was an extra bonus for this charming film. Watch it and catch the fever of "That Thing You Do!"
