Critical response
editJohn Dingwall of the Daily Record found the film to be a "dull-as-dishwater look at life on the road with Britain's top-selling band."[4] Stephen Pile of The Daily Telegraph similarly did not like the film, particularly what he saw as the "general wall-to-wall whingeing" of the band members.[5]
