In the early 1960's, before The Beatles, there was Elvis Presley, the undisputed king of Rock n Roll and of course there was Cliff Richard, the only singer that came close to rivaling Elvis Presley for popularity. Cliff Richard was Britain's answer to America's Elvis Presley. "The Young Ones" was the perfect showcase for Cliff's outstanding singing talent. Cliff Richard was perfectly cast in his first major starring role. The film also proved that Cliff could not only sing but that he could also act. "The Young Ones" was a huge hit worldwide and established Cliff Richard as the world's newest singing sensation. Apart from Cliff's unique singing voice, the film also features a top-notch soundtrack, eye-catching dance routines and of course the fabulous Shadows. Who can forget The Shadow's rendition of "The Savage" to the packed audience in the old theatre & the build up to the film's finale?

"The Young Ones" is a time capsule that features early 60's Rock n Roll at its best. From the opening credit sequence ("Friday Night") and Cliff's first song ("Got A Funny Feeling" sung on stage at the youth club) to the foot stomping finale (Cliff singing "We Say Yeah" on stage in the grand old theatre to a capacity crowd of screaming teenagers) "The Young Ones" moves at a crackling pace with one musical number after the next. Considered by many to be the best British musical ever and if your from that era, "The Young Ones" will certainly have you tapping your feet and humming the tunes, if not dancing to the beat of the music in your lounge room. "The Young Ones" is Cliff Richard in the prime of his career and at his youthful best. If you haven't seen it, don't miss it, "The Young Ones" is a musical feast for the eyes & ears. The film has become a classic among Rock n Roll musicals, not only of its era but also of all time.  Highly recommended for all viewers that enjoy quality musicals.
