Clint Eastwood’s Jersey Boys brings back doo-wop for its nostalgic set-pieces, but is an otherwise muted affair.
And the artists caught in the Campbellian garrote do not put up much resistance, despite their rough-and-tumble upbringing.
Sadly, the movie isnt walking anywhere.
In Eastwoods reliably steady hands,Jersey Boyscertainly has a sharp look.
Or at least, how everyone chooses to remember them.
However, such confident restraint proves the antithesis of rock and roll.
The result is the most muted musical in film history.
Personally, I have never had the pleasure of seeingJersey Boyson stage.
Be it stage or screens cause,Jersey Boysis a tune that we have all heard before.
Ultimately, this is one you might take your eyes off of.
