Welcome to the 60s!

Rating: 9/10 (6 May 2006)

This movie has the feel, the sound and the look of the 60s! Though there are a few anachronisms in the movie (none that I would have picked out!), I don't know if I've ever seen a movie with such complete attention to period detail from the original soundtrack that had me wondering if I had heard those songs in the 60s, to the Formica on the counter-top, and the Ed Sullivan show. The song "That Thing You Do" should have been a hit in 1964! I could have sworn I remembered the night the Wonders were on and the screen said John, oops, uh, Guy was taken! The entire movie brought me back to my childhood, and has retained that magic each time I've watched it.
