That Thing You Do! (2001, DVD)

My daughter had seen this movie years ago, it is no longer available in video stores or any retail stores we looked at. Saw it here, it was a good price and seemed in good condition. The product was everything and more and she likes it.

RIP ME OFF, NEVER SEND ANY OF THE THREE DVD'S==OR RETURN MY EMAILS=== would have been a good deal if i have got'en the dvd's.

This movie is one of my personal favorites. It is a terrific movie if you want to a watch a great story about some guys who seem just like your average guys just out of high school. It is a popular dream to be a rock star...but befor you become a rock star you may want to see all the demands that go with the job.

That Thing You Do! = A Must See

This is one of our all-time favorite family movies. This is a story of a small town band making it BIG. It is a great movie with music, unrequited love, humor and good characters. Very little swearing and no sex. Even our teenagers like to have friends over to watch this movie. I heard that these actors learned how to play the instruments in the movie and do all of their own singing and instrumentals. We recently purchased this movie again to give away for Christmas.
If you haven't seen it yet, get a copy today and watch it.

VERY HAPPY WITH SPEEDY SERVICE AND DELIVERY. AN EXCELLANT MOVIE THAT WAS PURCHASED AS A BIRTHDAY GIFT. THANK YOU

I don't remember this movie in the theaters. I don't remember any advertising for it in the media. But, by word of mouth from people who loved it, I discovered what has become one of my all time favorite movies.

The premise is that a small town garage band in the early 1960's who, because of an injury to their regular drummer, discovers a new beat and rides it to the top of the charts. It is a heady ride that takes them from talent shows to touring state fairs, starring in a movie on "the coast", and even a guest appearance on an Ed Sullivan type TV show, all in a few short months.

The movie is very gentle and quietly funny. My family probably quotes more lines from this movie than any other on a regular basis. The music is a wonderful homage to groups of the early sixties and has become some of my favorite "oldies". We bought the soundtrack and listen to it often, even now years later. The producers obviously grew up in this era and have paid attention to every detail, faithfully reproducing the clothing styles, the musical styles, the look of the cities of that era, and the culture. The casual comments of the characters delightfully reveal what was happening in American culture in the early '60s.

The movie is clean with very little profanity, no violence or sex (maybe a couple of off screen liasons are implied), and the characters are immediately likeable. I never tire of watching this movie or listening to the soundtrack. I feel like I have been invited to step back in time, thoroughly entertained, and treated with respect every time I watch it. If you haven't seen it yet, you are in for a real treat!

Outstanding, cute, funny, and clean movie. Higly recommended movie for the entire family. That song gets stuck in your head; but that's okay.

A cautionary pop fable following the meteoritic rise of "The Wonders," a fictitious foursome during the early days of pop-rock fandom. When jazz drummer Guy Patterson fills in for a session with a friend's band, a hit single is born and the smalltown boys find themselves riding a rollercoaster of success, guided by the opportunistic hand of a smooth-talking record label agent. Fun, cheerful, and innocent. Hanks directorial debut.

What's not to love about a great movie. Bought it several weeks ago and I love having it on hand to watch whenever I want. My kids love it too.

Excellent film in every way. A very accurate depiction of the music industry the way it was in the mid 60's. Tom Hanks didn't get the credit he deserved for this true masterpiece. The acting, writing, and directing, not to mention the fantastic all-original soundtrack is worlds ahead of any other movie of this type. It's family friendly with a great story line and a film you'll want to see again and again. I personally have the VHS, laserdisc and DVD versions and have bought copies for all of my friends who have enjoyed it almost as much as me. Fun for all, a pleasure to watch from beginning to end. Highly recommended. Don't miss it!

We love the movie, it is one of our family favorites. Definitely, a family movie, the kind where you don't have to ask your kids to cover their eyes!

Well made flick. Great for the entire family. Mine range in age from 7 to 15 and they all enjoyed it. Impeccably cast, with winning performances by Tom Everett Scott, Liv Tyler, Steve Zahn, and others. The story progresses nicely with an entertaining plot and payoff. Beautiful period-correct sets brings you back to a simpler time. Tom Hanks deserves tons more credit than he ever got for making this film. He does a good bit in it, too. Buy with confidence.

Very nice movie with a very cool little soundtrack...Perfect for any Tom Hanks fan! Very good job by all the cast in a nice storyline that takes them from garage band to national fame...

This movie is fun...pure and simple. If you like a good story, authentic-sounding period music from the 1960s and an excellent cast, then this movie is all you need.

It's a bit hard to write a review about a product that I never received. It appears the product was put up for sale but wasn't actually available for sale. I did eventually get my money back but it was a bit disappointing.

This movie is very clean, good and down right hilarious. A great family-fun-friday-night film! Steve Zahn is hilarious!!
