Clint Eastwood is a legend, both as an actor and director the man has done a fantastic job. But he also seemed to have gone a bit over his top, Jersey Boys is the living proof of this. The film adaptation of the Broadway hit about the life of Frankie Valli & The Four Seasons who have delivered many recognizable hits, unfortunately the film has become just as recognizable as every biopic that we have seen so often. Eastwood unfortunately can add nothing to the rather boring story and the mediocre narrative structure.

This biographical musical drama film directed by Clint Eastwood disappointed me a bit. Let alone that the audience of this time did not grow up with The 4 Seasons in large numbers. If you are then presented with such a story that lacks energy, with ten minutes of unnecessary chatter in every scene, you will quickly lose interest as a layman. I did not have the feeling that the characters lacked depth, but rather that the ins and outs passed by as obligatory parts of a whole. As I could understand, the band members have had quite a few bears on their path, but somehow it did not grab me.

The transitions in the film don't work. It's shaky. The dialogues aren't strong.

The acting is disappointing. Also because of the script. It sometimes feels like a play.

If you compare this movie to "Walk the line" (Johnny Cash) this is kindergarten.

The music remains great.

But then a CD is enough for me.

Too bad for Clint.
