I know a film about a punk rock band saving the world seems pretty juvenile, however, as off-putting as it all may sound, it’s held together a ton of energy. Fish story is exactly the kind of film that big production companies avoid because the story is all hit or miss. To find out if it hits the target or not, click here for the full review… Continue reading
