This fable about The Wonders, a rock band formed just after the Beatles invaded America in 1964, is symbolic of the may wannabes and one-hit wonders that followed the Fab Four. Tom Hanks stars, with lots of great supporting cast, including Rita Wilson (Hanks's wife) and Chris Isaak. The soundtrack features a couple dozen songs, unfortunately not a hit among them. ---from Musicals on the Silver Screen, American Library Association, 2013

I had hoped for more and wished this was a diamond in the rough. Instead it ended up being a film that should have been shelved and not progressed. Despite a decent cast and starting out well this film goes nowhere. I wondered what the point was about this film. We're all aware about One Hit Wonders but nothing in this film makes me care enough about what happens to them. A flimsy weak film. The clout and star power of Tom Hanks certainly allowed for just about anything to be made. Time I won't get back sadly.

This band has very good and catchy song, it would be so cool if they existed for real. Cool movie about fame and I had a lot of fun. Check it out with your family.

I wasn't sure what I was expecting but it turned out to be a romcom with the emphasis neither on romance nor comedy, instead on just telling a good interesting story. And I thought it was all done rather well. The ending was pretty solid, the main romance part. The character of Lamarr was brilliant as well, very funny indeed, he was the main Comedy part and not even in the film that much.

Every actor in this movie does a spectacular job. You're immersed in their world immediately, and at no time do you want to leave. All of the songs are good, and the soundtrack was worth buying too. Tom Hanks does a good performance, and I thought it was pretty cool that the actors actually learned how to play their instruments in this movie, and you can tell during theperformance scenes. The humorous parts were actually funny, and thesomber parts were realistic. The characters were original and memorable, especially Mr. White, played by Tom Hanks. The song "That Thing You Do!" is a great song, it has a very Beatles feel to it, as does the entire movie; it conjures up images of the Beatles' movie "Help". It's a shame it isn't recognized by the general public, but overall, a great movie.

An Erie,PA Rock and Roll band named "The Wonders" just made a hit song, and they become Teen Idols. After they appear on TV, the band broke up. It was a great movie. I like the song. This is also Tom Hanks debut as a director. A great movie. I give it *****.

This movie has gotten me through quarantine, stress, and more. The movie is fun, lighthearted, with some bits of drama. This movie is just perfect. I love so many things about this movie and I hope people appreciate this movie over time.

That Thing You Do!, Tom Hanks' first directorial effort, is an entertaining movie. The cast is pretty good, and introduces many young stars, including Tom Everett Scott and Liv Tyler. The weakest part of the film was, surprisingly, Tom Hanks' acting. The music is very good, as is Liv Tyler. That Thing You Do! is a charming film, but is by no means a cinematic triumph. I did enjoy it though, and I recommend it.

Tom Hanks writes, directs & co-stars in this 1996 comedy-drama which stars Tom Everett Scott, Liv Tyler and Steve Zahn. This takes place in in 1964 where we meet teen, Guy (Scott) who dreams of becoming a musician. He and his friends record a song, "That Thing You Do!" which becomes a hit and he and his friends skyrocket to fame as band, The Wonders. In the process, their lives start to change. Hanks plays Mr. White, a record manager that takes them under his wing, Tyler plays Faye, Guy's friend and Zahn plays their other friend, Lenny. Hanks' wife, Rita Wilson and Charlize Theron also appear. This is a good film with a great cast and good luck getting the song out of your head because it plays quite a bit, but still catchy. I recommend this.
