Oct 3, 2024This is NOT a film about Frank Sidebottom. Quite how Jon Ronson, who co-wrote the screenplay and was supposedly a friend of the real Frank Sidebottom, allowed this film to be made is an insult to Franks's memory. Frank was funny, entertaining, played 'toytown' version of famous songs, and was only slightly weird. Parts of the rehearsal sessions in the house seemed reminiscent of stories of the late Captain Beefheart virtually imprisoning his band in California whilst dreaming up 'Trout Mask Replica' - but there another set of similarities ends abruptly. The music throughout is naïve and dreadful - and this comes from someone who is interested in many forms of experimental music. If you don't know or care about the real Frank Sidebottom, you might enjoy this film. Otherwise, do avoid at all costs. It will only make you angry!

Sep 12, 2022This has to be the most oddest, touching and funniest movie that I have seen this year. The movie is about a keyboardist looking for his big break joins an eclectic pop band fronted by the mysterious Frank - the lead-singer who never removes his paper mâché head. This is by far my favorite movie of 2014. The acting in the movie was freaking fantastic, the writing was well written and it was new and refreshing, not like other movie these days. The main character of the film Frank played by Michael Fassbender, and I have to say frank is the most interesting character in this whole film. The other characters in the film are interesting to but I think frank is most interesting to me. A movie that is new and refreshing, not like other movie these days
