To Be Someone

Quite frankly the worst film I've ever seen, and I watched Cats. The acting is laughable at best and the green screen for the car driving scenes looks like it was done on a zx spectrum.

The true shame is I wanted to enjoy a bit of quadrophonic related nostalgia. This isn't it.

Ok, I admit it, as an old scooter riding mod I was suckered into buying the DVD. Within 5 minutes of watching it I regretted that decision. Despite the obvious potential of having a number of the Quadrophenia cast this film is possibly the worst film I have ever seen. And that includes the 10 minutes of "the sex lives of the potato men' starring Johnny Vegas.

Nothing to do with the mod or scootering scene, just a shameless attempt to cash in on the history of Quadrophenia with a 'comedy caper' that, simply, stinks.

Shame on everyone connected with this film.

Utter drivel. Enough said.

Only gave it 2 for a couple of tracks in the music score.

Dig a hole and bury it deep. A shoestring budget doesn't need to determine the quality of a film but in this case it does. Everything about this film is inept. Woeful script, cardboard cut-out characters, bizarre music interludes. The original Quadies appear to have been promised a few lines if they turned up on set. They shouldn't have bothered. The highlight is pantomime villain 'Mad Mike' whose facial contortions have to be seen to be believed. Try 'The Pebble and the Boy' before this, I've not seen it but it can't be worse than this tosh.

Just awful. The best bit about this film was when it finished and I could throw the DVD in the bin. I wouldn't even grace a Charity Shop shelf with this garbage.

Terrible cast, terrible dialogue, atrocious acting and I use the word acting lightly.
