Rockers (1978)
Not for everybody.
20 February 2018
I have to write this review because this movie has got so many praises and good reviews here.

I like to listen some reggae but I'm not particulary interested in Jamaican culture or rastafari things so I started watching the film from a very neutral point of view.

Right away it feels like the director has some kind of crush on Jamaican culture and reggae and he is trying to pass on this new found love to his audience. But when you analyze this movie from critical point of view the acting isn't too great(terrible), the dialogue is boring, the camera work and directing is very very basic and the plot seems just to be there only so it can be called movie instead a this random mixture of music video and culture documentary In one word it feels FAKE. I think it would have much better impact if the director would have just filmed real life, random events and let the people be themselves without any acting..

I couldn't even finish watching this because it just didn't suck me in at any point and that's why I'm not gonna give a rating to it either,
