\u2022 Blu-ray.com<\/a><\/strong>: Review: (Very comprehensive look at the film, Blu-ray release and extras) As far as I am concerned, Franc Roddam’s Quadrophenia is one of the all-time best British coming-of-age films. It is painfully honest, gritty yet beautiful, superbly acted film.<\/p>\n

\u2022 The<\/strong> Hollywood Reporter<\/strong><\/a>: Quadrophenia: A restored Blu-ray\/DVD of The Who’s landmark film recaptures the 1960s.<\/p>\n

\u2022 Blu-ray Definition<\/a><\/strong>: Quadrophenia [Criterion Collection] Blu-ray Review: Going back nearly 50 years in time, Quadrophenia does a creditable job in conveying the fashions and fads of the era.<\/p>\n

\u2022 The Boston Globe<\/a><\/strong>: The Who, why, and how of \u2018Quadrophenia\u2019: Flash back to \u201cLove Reign O\u2019er Me\u201d as the soundtrack of a life, as \u201cQuadrophenia\u201d (1979), the immersively scruffy feature riff on the Who\u2019s classic rock opera, arrives this week in a terrific-sounding, meticulously remastered Blu-ray.<\/p>\n

\u2022 The Globe & Mail<\/a><\/strong>: The Mods are back, but who were they? They wore their jackets cut slim and checked, maybe a touch of seersucker and an open neck. They rode Vespa GS scooters with their hair cut neat. They were British Mods. But what does that all mean?<\/p>\n

\u2022 Criterion Corner<\/a><\/strong>: Under The Covers: Criterion sure loves their rock odyssees (there\u2019s this, Head, Spinal Tap, that one where Takashi Miike tortures David Bowie for 2 hours\u2026), and they have done some serious justice to Franc Roddam\u2019s Quadrophenia.<\/p>\n

\u2022 SLT Today<\/a><\/strong>: ‘Quadrophenia’ rocks on Blu-ray: On my ever-expanding list of favorite movies, two titles have shared the top spot since 1979: \u201cIt’s a Wonderful Life\u201d and \u201cQuadrophenia.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u2022 DVD File<\/a><\/strong>: Review: What sets Quadrophenia apart from the pack isn’t as much its achievement as a ‘rock opera’ but its willingness to play among the fringes of the sub-genre.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
