It's convivial and well intended with an absolutely glorious takedown of early 90s boy bands.

Curious...is that an issue with the film? or more likely with the stage show...and then the film? -- nm - Jim Jun 18, 10:12 6
- As I understand it, there are dramatic changes from the play. Catherine Zeta-Jones isn't even in the play and she's the villain. -- nm - David Jun 18, 10:35
- I think some of it is the film - some of the dialogue is rotten. - Kim Pine Jun 18, 10:19 4
  - Class of '89 here, so it's right in my wheelhouse as well. I'll still probably wait for DVD though. -- nm - Jim Jun 18, 10:24 3
    - I think it's a movie most people will wait to watch on DVD but it's worth a look. -- nm - David Jun 18, 10:36
    - Just get the soundtrack. You can figure out the movie without even having to watch. - Kim Pine Jun 18, 10:25 1
