Basierend auf den Memoiren des Telegraph-Musikkritikers Neil McCormick I Was Bono’s Doppelganger erzählt der Film die Geschichte zweier konkurrierender aufstrebender Newcomer-Bands, eine davon nennt sich U2 und hat den Weg zum internationalen Erfolg bekanntlich geschafft. Die andere heißt Shook Up und besteht unter anderem aus Neil McCormick und seinem Bruder Ivan. (Verleiher-Text)

I originally thought that this film would be mainly about U2. It’s mainly about U2 in the beginning and then the friendship of the guys from Dublin falls apart and the film goes at its own pace, following another band that has it pretty rough. The Irish seems to have a sense of humor, because if this film is really exactly according to the truth and the biography of the creators of the band, then I think that even if I got run over by the same car four times, I would still be luckier than them. In addition, I enjoyed the excellent acting performances of Ben Barnes and Robert Sheehan. And the best part was that they played and sang all the music numbers themselves. They have my respect. All in all, I have to say that it’s not enough for five stars, but it’s still a really decent story from the 1970s in Dublin, which doesn’t get boring for a single minute.
