The musical soundtrack is strictly modern dancehall, which may or may not bode well for you. However, although I am not a huge fan of modern dancehall music myself, even I find the rhythms included on this DVD extremely exciting. The story is full of well developed characters, and the film is set almost entirely within Kingston Jamaica. One of the all-time classic Reggae films is released in DVD format. It just does not get any better than this film, The Rockers.
Reggae artists sing and perform, but they are the actors as well.
They Come by the sheer number of artists that actively participate. For example, Spear's singing by the river is revelatory. Not to mention the fact that the Rockers soundtrack is one of the better collections of roots classics you will find. Not only recommended, but crucial. If you like Bob Marley and Reggae music, or if you are interested in the production of albums in the studio, then this DVD is essential.
