A terrible film in almost every respect. I was looking forward to watching it but it seems like I fell into the trap of falling for the good reviews without reading all of them! The only positive I can think of was the soundtrack, but I'd suggest people make themselves a 2 hour playlist of the Jam or Style Council and listen to that instead. I can't imagine what they thought when they watched it back after the final edit. I'm surprised Paul Weller allowed any of his music to remain in it. I know Quadrophenia has its issues but why is it so difficult to make a 'mod' film without it turning into a shocker like this. A truly awful film.
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.
