Sex & Drugs & Rock & Roll



Certificate: 15
Running Time: 115 minutes
Director: Mat Whitecross



The almost biographical story of Ian Drury and his punk band, The Blockheads, as they shoot to fame in the 1970’s. Andy Serkis captured the true essence of punk life, and shows Drury’s stuggles with fame, flings and fatherhood. A quirky depiction, to say the least, but also very hard hitting. Very glamourous in terms of punk and rock, although Serkis looked almost like a lost member of the circus in certain scenes. No regrets watching this movie, but not a box office smash. 


Rating: ***
