Sometimes everything succees... The plot is right, the director is right and the cast is perfect. This is a movie like that.
Alan Parker has made some great movies (like 'Birdie') and some that are not so great. But even if he hasn't done anything else than 'The Commitments' he would be in the Hall of Fame.
Roddy Doyle is a writer of his own kind and this is a fine adaption of his novel.
I don't know if Robert Arkins has done anything else than Jimmy Rabitte's role but this is a bull's eye. Colm Meaney is wonderful. Johnny Murphy is a treasure and then there is -of course- the irritating Andrew Strong.
And the music. What can you say!
