Not Fade Away
In 1960s New Jersey, Doug (John Magaro) drops out of college to devote his energies to the rock band he founded in high school, much to the chagrin of his father (James Gandolfini). When Gene (Jack Huston), the band's lead singer, has a mishap that temporarily knocks him out as frontman, Doug takes over. The band's new sound is a hit with the crowd, leading to Gene's ever-increasing resentment. Meanwhile, Wells (Will Brill), another bandmate, struggles with the group's reach for fame.

I on the other hand did not enjoy this film. Its because it was a bit slow. But the acting was good and I did like the songs that they played. And the reason why I say that is because I been listening to 50's, 60's, 70's and 80's music since the 90's and I still listen to that kind of music.

This isn’t the feature film debut we expected from David Chase, creator of the iconic HBO mob drama, “The Sopranos.” While that series was violent and often funny in a very dark way, “Not Fade Away” is sentimental and occasionally funny in a very light way. Which isn’t to say it’s bad, just … different.
