no reviews on the DVD, but the movie is pretty tedious, yet another in the "working class attempts to rise against oppressive living conditions in England by stripping/gardening/growing pot/playing in a marching band" stream of pictures from England that seem to never stop. And even by those standards, it's not particularly good.

I must concur with the above, but just want to add that the movie is redeeming in one respect: it really clarified that I want to bed Tara Fitzgerald very, very badly.

I agree with the previous posts. It's a pleasant, little Brit comedy that gets more cornball as it goes along. Since you are a music fan, you might like the music, but there isn't that much in it. Maybe two or three songs. But I really wasn't paying attention to the music because I was too busy staring (fantasizing) about Tara Fitzgerald. She was the one thing that kept me watching it until the end.
