Recounts a fable of a pop rock band formed a year after the Beatles took America by storm in early 1964. Jazz aficionado Guy Patterson, unhappily toiling in the family appliance store, is recruited into the band the Oneders (later renamed the Wonders) after regular drummer Chad breaks his arm. After Guy injects a four/four rock beat into lead singer Jimmy's ballad, the song's undeniable pop power flings the Wonders into a brief whirlwind of success, telling the tale of many American bands who attempted to grab the brass ring of rock and roll in the wake of the British Invasion.
Leave your thoughts about That Thing You Do!.
| Entertainment WeeklyOwen GleibermanThat Thing You Do! is neither overly sentimental nor overly cynical. It looks at the invention of our pop-rock mythology, and the bands that fed it until they were consumed by it, just as you'd expect Tom Hanks to: with open eyes (and a raised eyebrow). |
| Los Angeles TimesKenneth TuranMr. Hanks's debut feature, written and directed with delightful good cheer, is rock-and-roll nostalgia presented as pure fizz. |
| Three Movie BuffsScott NashA movie as catchy and likable as the title song. |
| Courier-Journal (Louisville, KY)Judith EgertonWith its exuberant tempo and danceable Beatlesque theme song, That Thing You Do will win the hearts of a broad audience. |
| Solzy at the MoviesDanielle SolzmanHanks gives us a rocking musical film for the ages in That Thing You Do! |
| NetflixJames RocchiTom Hanks' writing-directing debut is a sweet valentine to rock 'n' roll. |
| Film.comTom KeoghHanks evokes astonishingly precise memories of the time. |
| Sacramento BeeJoe BaltakeHanks' film is about how all good things come to an end. The important thing is to enjoy it all while it lasts. |
| Filmcritic.comChristopher Null...is a pleasant film perfect for a brain-dead matinee. |
| VarietyEmanuel LevyA top-notch production, exuberant period music and Hanks the actor in an important role cunningly disguise a rather slight and inconsequential narrative. |
