Dullsville!

Rating: Null/10 (14 June 2001)

Boring, uninteresting piece of twaddle. No reason to sit and watch this thing. Want to see a better reflection of the times and how things were with a sudden pop band quartet? Watch "I Wanna Hold Your Hand" which came out in the late seventies about six or seven teens trying to get in to see the Beatles on Ed Sullivan. You'll get a better feel of things and of more realism than this tired bit of fluff. Hanks could have wanted to do a movie about paint drying and they would have let him. No one liked the song, no one knew who the guys were, no one was interested in this band. No one emerged as a teen heartthrob or went on to other things (Liv Tyler apparently took Bruce willis away from Demi Moore if thats anything). the band and song was so obscure, everyone kept referring to them as the Oh-need-ers instead of that catchier interpretation, the Wonders, spelled Oneders. This was a miss. Look for "I wanna hold your hand" or better yet, compare the two. Opposite as night and day and dealing with the same thing.
