I thought the 60's atmosphere was very well captured but that was about it alas. The Chelsea Smile scene was good but Kemp & Kemp were just too lightweight to be convincing, and Steven Berkoff chewed the scenery more than ever.

Roger Daltrey's original idea had Hywel Bennett & the late Gerry Sundquist as Ronnie & Reggie respectively. Now that WOULD have been good.
