Ratings and reviews

My friend introduced me to Prince back at school in the 80s and I think Prince is a genius. Keep on rocking Prince. Great modern day musical.

I enjoyed the film and the music is just brilliant. The Album of the same name is one of my all time favourites and the title track just makes you want to get up and play your air guitar.🤩

Watched it when I was 12 years old and for what it is, it's a great movie with great Music with the genius of a performer. RIP Prince 0(+>
