JERSEY BOYS - A MASTERPIECE! 
ONE OF THE GREATEST FILMS IN 
YEARS 

And here is a Big Surprise -- Clint Eastwood produced and directed -- and I believe that his movie will be at the top of the Oscars. Not only was I thrilled by the Jersey Boys - they also bowled me over with the well-plotted outstanding singing. I'd see it twice or more.  

I've seen many versions of the Stage play - but nothing compares with this movie version. And Gee Wiz -- was I enchanted. The music and visuals made us laugh - and the singing was stunning. The audience loved it, and I loved it - there was extreme jiggling in the seats. 

What a knockout cast this is. There is Vincent Piazza, Christopher Walken and John Lloyd Young as Frankie Valli. I was dazzled and overwhelmed with the absorbing and powerful filmmaking. 

THE JERSEY BOYS have a well-plotted movie. It's an unforgettable rare movie that is brilliant, exciting and deeply moving. 

Performances of a life time
