Despite a decent cast, 'SoulBoy' isn't a worthwhile watch. It portrays a story that I feel like I've seen many times before, with much of it being quite predictable - even taking that element out, it's kinda cringey to watch unfold. Initially, it feels like a cheap attempt at replicating 'Kevin & Perry Go Large' and/or 'The Inbetweeners', though does in fairness deviate from that eventually. The 70s look, meanwhile, does come out well at least. As for the onscreen talent, a pre-'Line of Duty' Martin Compston plays lead ahead of Craig Parkinson, who he'd heavily work with to much greater effect on that aforementioned television show, Felicity Jones, Alfie Allen and Nichola Burley. Bruce Jones, known in the UK for 'Coronation Street', is in there too. It's a shame that I didn't like this 2010 flick, as that's a solid cast list for this sorta film.

Northern Soul: Living for the Weekend

The northern soul phenomenon was the most exciting underground British club movement of the 1970s. At its highpoint, thousands of disenchanted white working class youths across the north of England danced to obscure, mid-60s Motown-inspired sounds until the sun rose. A dynamic culture of fashions, dance moves, vinyl obsession and much more grew up around this - all fuelled by the love of rare black American soul music with an express-train beat.

The Way of the Crowd

The most comprehensive documentary ever made on the Northern Soul scene. A dynamic insight into why this music meant so much to so many.
