This is a nice little movie with some good music and heartfelt story. Nothing that is going to blow you away but it put a smile on my face.

Not the typical film I’d watch, but I’m glad I did...loved it. Not only nostalgic as I was the same age when the film was set, but I loved the positive message it gives and a true sense of climate of the mid to late 80’s. There’s actually nothing not to like, give it a watch ;)

A little too much Springsteen at times - although there was probably no getting away from that given the title - and it is somtimes contrived . Still, there is much to like, with some charming characters, and a nostalgic blast from the past with the 80s stylings.

Saw this on the same day like the other British minority driven ‘music’ movie and I gotta say this is vastly better. “Yesterday” is first and foremost a comedy while I’d put “Blinded by the light” in the drama category, so they are not easily comparable. However in terms of heart and substance this easily wins the day. As an avid Springsteen fan this movie spoke to me in many ways but I am sure you will enjoy this even if you have never listened to The Boss. I remember when I first heard his music. I must have been just a bit older than Javed. The lyrics spoke to me right from the start. 9/10

A gentle, funny, story about a lad whose outlook on life is totally transformed after his pal introduces him to the music of Bruce Springsteen. Viveik Kalra is on engaging form as the young "Javed" as is Dean-Charles Chapman as his aggrieved mate "Matt" and the music serves as a memorable narrative More

In all honesty Blinded by the Light feels very much like a movie where the makers have gone the ‘stock plotline’ shelf and picked out the box labelled ‘rebellious teenager fights parents and expectations to go their own road’ and started from there.

The importance of representation isn't to speak exclusively to one crowd but to demonstrate that deep down, we all deal with the same issues and problems, regardless of ability, race, gender, religion or any of the other attributes that are used to divide us. This movie isn't just about a young boy More

Perhaps it was the “I feel like I’ve seen this before” factor, but ‘Blinded By The Light’ just didn’t resonate. It lacked the humour, the heart and the finesse of Chadha’s previous films, and therefore it falls short.
