Whew, were those dudes nerds.
It actually had me laughing out loud many, many times. Who told Alan
Alda he looked like Nesmith anyway?? He sounded more like Kasey Kasem
voicing Shaggy than Mike. And why the hell was Davy Jones dancing like
Axl Rose? At least Rodney Bingenheimer finally got to step up into the
spotlight for a change. Peter was played by the Baldwin brother you
never heard of and somehow Dean Cain pulled off a mean Mickey (at
twice his size!). But the best (or worst) was the guy who played Jack
Nicholson. Holy shit, that was horrible. I thought Jimi Hendrix
resembled "Huggy Bear" from Starsky and Hutch - while John
Lennon looked like Peter Sellers with a hangover. So what the hell was
up with this TV movie anyhow?
Mayor's Note: Actually, the part of Jack Nicholson may have been played by the bastard nephew of Fred Travalena and John Lennon looked more like a subdued Robin Williams. "Oooh, Zilch - what a concept!" But Norm's pretty dead-on with the rest of his review, especially the Davy dancing reference. I always thought Axl was trying to cop the style of Mr. Jones in those old Guns N' Roses music videos.
