Greatest Days (2023)
10/10
Why the bad reviews? Loved it.

I'm not a Take That fan, since seeing how nasty Barlow can be on the X Factor etc it put me right off. However, their music is listenable.

This took me by surprise as was very moving. The story telling and writing is excellent, each actor is well cast and can actually act well, which is a novelty nowadays. The Direction is great and cinematography also. The songs fit in well and the musical arrangements sound good in the Odeon Luxe sound system. Choreography isn't ground breaking but good enough.

The big musical numbers could have done with a much bigger supporting cast but it didn't spoil the film.

As others have said there are parallels with Mamma Mia, particularly Mamma Mia 2.

The Lead is perfect, a gentle character and very likeable, as were all the others.

I get sick and tired of hearing the word "Woke". Yes this film is inclusive but what is wrong with that? Can't we all just live together without judgment and hate?

The film has a good start, middle and ending, perfect.

It's a shame it doesn't seem to be selling well as it deserves success.
