"11.7. I case you really love The Who and Tommy, then this film is just what you need. I don't think it's that great, but as an ambitious spectacle for the fans it does the trick. Tommy even stars Elton John, Jack Nicholson, Tina Turner..."

Well, to be honest, I have to admit that I actually had a hard time to really care about the damned thing after all. Indeed, it was such a mess and, in fact, as far as I was concerned, it was actually borderline unwatchable. Unfortunately, when such famous bands or singers indulge themselves in making music pictures like this one, the end-result is usually quite pretentious and this movie was not an exception, I’m afraid.
