Catching the excitement of a mid-1960s garage band formed by 4 typical all-American young men from Erie, PA, who atypically make it to the "big time" with a hit record.Hanks succeeds on all levels as Director, Screenwriter, Actor, and Producer, resulting in the official formation of "Playtone" two years later (named after the fictional record label portrayed in the film), that continues to make him some serious "scratch".'That Thing You Do' is a contagiously likable and fun film to watch, and for baby-boomers a must-see.👍👍

Tom Hanks directs, writes and stars in this brilliant rock 'n' roll movie, which features a great soundtrack too. I love the 50's/60's days, so this movie was perfect for me. There was some great acting here too, especially, by the brilliant Tom Hanks. This is a movie, that everyone should see. That Thing You do, definitely deserves a 10/10.

I saw this movie for the first time as an 11 year old. Since then I have watched it probably fifty times. It's absolutely perfect. I love the aesthetics of the 60s. The cast is great and the script is hilarious. Seriously there is nothing to criticize about this movie.
