- an exercise in excess
The film version of "Tommy" is sheer audiovisual overload. It's probably impossible to sit all the way though this extravaganza without popping out the room to make a cuppa or putting the player on hold overnight It's probably unfashionable to admit to liking it, though calling it a Cult Classic goes someway to sparing one's blushes. But thanks to DVD, we can now treat Ken Russell's rendering of Pete Townsend's rock opera like a box of rich chocolates: dip into your favourite scenes, or digest the whole lot at one sitting.

Tommy:- You either loved it or hated it. However, it has stood the test of time. Is it a Rock remake of the story of Christ or just a rambling set of images designed to make the best use of the music? You have to make up your own mind.

- A must have - for the middle aged if no-one else!!
The music is brilliant, even if some of it makes no sense. Much of it is very cliched, and was when it came out. My teenage daughters described the film as "a bit trippy", which is an understatement. Ken Russell's direction is ideosyncratic as ever. But hey, what the heck? Pour yourself a glass or two of wine and have fun watching it. Just don't take it too seriously! Men - AnnMargret, and those beans... And for the women, obviously- Roger Daltrey, bare chested and absolutely gorgeous, running, swimming, turning cartwheels on the beach - that excerpt alone is worth the price and first class postage!
