Bright, noisy, and surprisingly fulfilling, it keeps its adrenaline rush under deceptively easy control.

A raucous, uproarious satire of the dance-club scene.

This is biopic as raving rumination. But it is also a surprisingly compassionate redemption story.

O diretor Michael Dowse confere energia admirável a este filme espetacular que conta, ainda, com uma atuação arrebatadora de Paul Kaye.

This has writing that could charitably be called inane, and a wholly repulsive star.
