Da ich 2000 geboren bin hab ich diesen Skandal natürlich alles nicht mitbekommen. Aber ich muss sagen, mich hätte es gar nicht so sehr gestört .. eine Show ist nun mal eine Show. Der Film hat mich sehr unterhalten und die beiden gleichen dem Orginal Duo auch verblüffend echt!

This was really well done. These actors really embodied Rob and Fab. I’m a sucker for biopics especially artists I grew up loving.
