📷 Movie Review: The Commitments (1991) 📷 Category Scores: Story: 6/10 Characters: 4/10 Acting: 4/10 Direction: 6/10 Emotional Impact: 4/10 Pacing: 6/10 Visuals: 5/10 Music: 10/10 Creativity: 8/10 Ending: 6/10 📷 Final Score: 5.9 / 10 📷 Movie Summary: A group of working-class youths in Dublin forms a soul band, chasing dreams of success while dealing with internal conflicts and personal struggles. 📷 My Review: So this was not my cup of tea. One thing I really liked was the music — I mean, I really did. However, the premise of this movie is for people across the pond doing Black music — that’s not me saying that, they said that in the movie. There were also multiple times when they said, “I’m Black, and I am proud,” and there was no chocolate on their skin. I was not a fan of that at all. Also, Google said this was a comedy, and I did not laugh at all while watching it. I can see why people would like this movie, but I was not a fan. 📷 Next Movie: Sleeping with the Enemy (1991) #MovieReview #1991Movies #TheCommitments #MusicMovies #FilmRatings

#TheCommitments (1991) : The Commitmen-tits! An entertaining musical comedy with a tragic finale. The Commitments wasn't a huge hit but has been celebrated over the years. A simple story of a musical group, loaded with funny conversations and comical chaos, the film takes a dark turn in the end, and you really feel for the characters. It wasn't a natural disaster, just human mistakes and the game of timing. Jimmy Rabbitte, a young music fanatic, wants to build a rock n roll band and picks up a solid team of underdogs. Even that's portrayed funnily, as you can see the boys getting excited when hot chics join the group and then an old fella seduces two of them with his shiney and sweet talk. Some of them fight constantly, and Jimmy has to carry on because they are his team. In the end, all his efforts lead to a tragic finale. What's that? Let's leave that for first-hand experience. The Commitments runs for about two hours and barely feels boring, except for the middle portion. The musical numbers are entertaining and have some nostalgic value. It's a fairly cult film for the '80s kid and some of the '90s kids, as it blends musical culture with modern appeal. That final performance on "Midnight Hour" left me spellbound. The film is chaotic, but that's why it feels realistic. It doesn't aim for a polished framework because the characters are underdogs and not very mature. Therefore, the execution had to be a little out of frame. The entire cast – #RobertArkins, #MichaelAherne, #AngelineBall, #MariaDoyle, Dave Finnegan, Bronagh Gallagher, Félim Gormley, Glen Hansard, and others – look very natural in their roles. AlanParker's smooth hands at direction and the very youthful energy all over make it a worth-watching flick, if not great. I really enjoyed it despite its flaws, mainly because of its music. RATING – 6/10*

For those of a certain vintage, #TheCommitments is just starting on @RTE2, filmed in a largely now-vanished Dublin. Deadly.
