Watch Hunky Dory Movie Online No Survey Relive the summer of 1976 in this heartwarming British musical from the producer of Billy Elliot. Minnie Driver plays Viv, a fiery high school drama teacher determined to fire up her hormonal, apathetic students by putting on the best end-of-the-year show the school has ever seen... a glam rock-infused musical version of Shakespeare's The Tempest. But as the Welsh summer begins to heat up, can she compete with the typical teenage distractions of sex and drugs with some great rock and roll? Find out in this fantastic, rousing film- but remove all fears of the typical teen-pop covered high school musicals from your minds, as the songs in this film are from legendary artists like David Bowie, The Beach Boys, ELO, and The Byrds.

Review For Hunky Dory
Golden-hued, feel-good treacle, the sort that the U.K. has tried to export ever since Billy Elliot. Amy Nicholson-Los Angeles Times The golden-hued cinematography (a filming cliché that really needs to be retired) and the sometimes slack direction by Marc Evans are minuses ... Lou Lumenick-New York Post At various moments this endearing but sudsy movie, which spills all over the place, evokes "High School Musical," "Glee" and "Billy Elliot." Stephen Holden-New York Times Hunky Dory flits along blithely from number to transporting musical number until it ends - with a sigh - and dodges any authentic engagement with its own ideas. Joel Arnold-NPR Enthusiasm carries the day in this paint-by-numbers period tale, which is just charming enough to coast on its own clichés. Elizabeth Weitzman-New York Daily News Hunky Dory has some pleasant things in it, but unfortunately, the funereal pace makes a snail look like a jackrabbit. Rex Reed-New York Observer A period piece spin on Glee, as filtered through the gauzy lens of underclass-artistic-exuberance that's plagued a subset of comedic-leaning British imports ever since Billy Elliot. Brent Simon-Shockya.com A lyrically and emotionally intense coming of age tale. Touching on a teacher's struggle against the educational establishment in a search for the liberating musical self-expression of her students. Prairie Miller-WBAI Radio Although not perfect, 'Hunky Dory' offers much to admire. For example, the film's glorious finale almost took my breath away. Betty Jo Tucker-ReelTalk Movie Reviews Director Marc Evans and screenwriter Laurence Coriat fumble both the musical side of their movie and the coming-of-age side. Noel Murray-AV Club An appealing drama set in Wales in 1976 about a high school rock opera version of Shakespeare's The Tempest. Frederic and Mary Ann Brussat-Spirituality and Practice It's pleasant, forgettably feelgood and unabashedly hackneyed, doing everything you expect it to - nothing more, nothing less. Aaron Yap-Flicks.co.nz Dory has a spark that never catches fire, leaving the bulk of its personality up to Driver and her interesting take on the often strange moods of this coming-of-age musical drama. Brian Orndorf-Blu-ray.com There's at least one sub-plot too many, but audiences willing to suspend disbelief will be swept up as the greatest high school band in the history of music perform an impeccable selection of hits. Paul Gallagher-The List The earnest playing of the orchestra and the lo-fi warbling touch the heart in a way that a more polished production might not. Anthony Quinn-Independent If Hunky is hellishly clunky, it's also good-hearted and well-intentioned with some laughs and decent tunes. Siobhan Synnot-Scotsman
