Ed burns movies are not about action they are about the characters. Go watch she's the one.

It was passable and despite other reviewers the soundtrack was quintessential early 80's pop, however there were a few glaring errors. The movie takes place in 1982, Duran Duran hungry like the wolf didn't exist yet nor did the phrase hook up or home slice to name a few. We should have heard the cars and reo speed wagon and foreigner and blondie and the pretenders Mr burns perhaps has forgotten 1982 but the viewers haven't. It felt more like an 80's themed party from 2001

The actors did miss the mark a little with connecting with the era but overall was enjoyable. Burns is a storyteller if you're looking for sex and action and explosions this isnt for you. If you want to be entertained and forget for 90 min it's a good choice.
