Sweet story with likable characters
|Posted .Owned for 1 week when reviewed.I loved this movie! The characters are well developed and easy to love. The story is uplifting and sweet, but it's also a good educational film about the difficulties of being Pakistani while living in London......or any other western nation.

Great if you are a Springsteen fan
|Posted .Owned for 11 months when reviewed.I would recommend this to a friendSaw the trailers last year and had to see it in the theater. Although I am not a Springsteen fan per say, I have been to one of his early concerts and enjoy his poetic music, (just like Dylan). The storyline is great (mostly true) and the acting was well casted. Strange to see Agent Carter (Atwood) as a school teacher, but again shows the quality of talent in this movie.

Hail to The Boss!
|Posted .Owned for 5 months when reviewed.I would recommend this to a friendI've been a Bruce Springsteen fan since seeing him at Rock Creek Park in 1974. I've seen him 24 times in concert during that period. When I heard that this movie was coming out I was psyched. Saw it the first weekend (which was good because it only lasted two weeks in the local theater). I have very little in common with the main character, but we were both young, disillusioned, and found a voice. I enjoyed the journey that this movie led me. I still listen to Bruce and the hope and dreams he sings about. I look forward to seeing him for a 25th time somewhere down the road.

The Boss rules...
|Posted .Owned for 11 months when reviewed.I would recommend this to a friendBlinded by the Light is a great film regardless if you like The Boss or not. Personally, I love the Boss and have grown up spinning his records and attending his Live shows. We need more of these 'feel good' movies during times like this...

If you are interested in 80s multicultural Britain
|Posted .Owned for 3 months when reviewed.I would recommend this to a friendI grew up in Luton where the film was based so I was very familiar with the community tensions shown in the film. It was also interesting to show what affect Bruce Springsteen has outside the USA. His lyrics of the everyman can be identified with throughout the world. I found the film as a whole to be very accurate in a lot of ways and appreciated the road trip down memory lane.

Springsteen fans rejoice
|Posted .Owned for 2 months when reviewed.I would recommend this to a friendMy family absolutely loved this movie. If you are a Springsteen fan, however, it will take you to an even higher level of enjoyment. The film is loosely based on the (almost unbelievable) true story of Sarfraz Manzoor, a British teen of Pakistani descent who deals with racism and bullying while trying to define his own identity. Springsteen’s music helps him on that journey. Fun and heartwarming with an uplifting moral message of hope and perseverance against all odds. Perfect for teens and up.

Amazing movie!

Beautiful small film.
|Posted .Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.I would recommend this to a friendIn today’s world where prejudices are cropping up in the daily news, this small, beautiful film is a breath of fresh air. Although it seems that we have seen parts of this story before it is a fresh take on family and the way people should interrelate. Springsteen’s music works wonderfully as the anthem it was for many young people originally. Here his music bridges the chasm between young and old and different cultures. The acting is excellent and the touch of fantasy with dancing makes it magical.
