In the 1960s, four scrappy young men from New Jersey -- Frankie Valli (John Lloyd Young), Bob Gaudio (Erich Bergen), Nick Massi (Michael Lomenda) and Tommy DeVito (Vincent Piazza) -- have the magic sound that propels them from singing under streetlights to singing in spotlights. With songs like "Sherry," "Big Girls Don't Cry" and "Walk Like a Man," the quartet finds itself at the top of the charts. However, personal and professional problems threaten to tear the group apart.

Dwight Brown National Newspaper Publishers Association 03/07/2017
[Eastwood] displays his strong suits: music, drama and evocative cinematography. Go to Full Review Sophie Gilbert The Atlantic 12/31/2015
A scattered, haphazard, thoroughly confused film that can't figure out if it's meant to be a winningly cutesy musical or a gritty narrative about life in crime-ridden 1950s New Jersey. Go to Full Review Eddie Cockrell The Australian 07/09/2014
4/5
The combination of... [Woody Allen & Clint Eastwood] has resulted in a Broadway adaptation that hums with vigour, sings with the capricious unpredictability of fate and fame, and does firm and lasting justice to the legacy of that vintage studio logo. Go to Full Review Eddie Harrison film-authority.com 09/16/2022
3/5
…a straight bio-pic, with diegetic music only either as the soundtrack to montages or when the band perform… Go to Full Review Brian Eggert Deep Focus Review 08/15/2022
2/4
Eastwood’s firmly established love of music doesn’t necessarily mean he’s attuned to the snappy, energetic presentation this production required to both channel the Broadway show and ensnare moviegoers. Go to Full Review Robert Sims Lights Camera Austin 01/22/2022
Clint Eastwood's admittedly classy take on the Tony Award-winning Jersey Boys lacks the energy of Dreamgirls and the showmanship of Chicago. Go to Full Review Read all reviews

thiago s @Thiagostone Jul 1 Filme fraco, o roteiro é fraco, as cenas são fracas, a história é fraca, o elenco é fraco, e ninguém ajuda a melhorar o filme, os personagens são fracos, e o filme deveria ter cenas bem melhores e relevantes, para fazer o filme ser bom See more Cfunk D @Cfunk2085 May 4 Good movie. I like the mix of narrators. The movie is funny and focuses on all the characters a little bit. A little long but an entertaining movie See more Clark W @RT86887181 04/07/2025 This is a hit-and-miss movie across the board. The music, the acting, the characterizations, the storytelling. I'm glad I saw it; I got a little better feel for the behind-the-scenes story of the group; but once is enough. I don't think I'll have any great urges to see it again. See more Eye C @ECinc 09/07/2024 A great biopic, a little rough with the stereotypes but in general it’s a beautiful story. And the Bollywood ending style never fails. See more Alec B @Alec97 12/13/2023 Eastwood's the right guy to make a movie about The Four Seasons, unfortunately a lot of the cast are amateurish over-actors, the make-up is laughably awful, and the source material was never strong enough to work as anything but a flashy stage show designed to feed baby boomers insatiable nostalgia. See more Mark C @Filmzy 07/18/2023 Really pulled off that older style. Great songs See more Read all reviews
