[Hencken] makes a very persuasive case for Spandau Ballet's place in the Britpop pantheon.
May 07, 2015
An energetic, entertainingly assembled documentary portrait ...
September 30, 2014
This trawl through the band's history has enough guile and guts to keep you watching.
April 28, 2015
It helps to be a Spandau fan, of course, but the smart, layered contextualizing and historicizing of the group within the film makes it a gift for any pop-culture aficionado.
April 27, 2015
An absorbing and insightful delve into how the band defined the post-punk -- and consciously flamboyant UK -- music scene and went on to be an international phenomenon.
April 30, 2015
Standard issue band history doc, but it smartly finds depth in a particularly shallow era in pop.
May 14, 2015
This has the quality of an illustrated oral history, though the incessant nostalgia and revisionist history are exhausting.
April 29, 2015
The band wasn't that great. Neither is the movie, which, if directed with a bit more sensitivity toward the latent comedy, could have been hilarious.
April 28, 2015
[Soul Boys] does a fantastic job explaining the youth movement that birthed the New Romantic genre.
May 01, 2015
This slapdash but endearing doc about the rise, fall and resurrection of '80s pop outfit Spandau Ballet is an inside job, packed with strong archive footage yet lacking anything you'd call truly incisive.
April 28, 2015
The advantage to Hencken's approach is that it makes Soul Boys Of The Western World play like a movie version of a printed oral history.
April 28, 2015
You won't be convinced that Spandau Ballet was the best band of the 1980s. Even if they did have the best bums.
