Good Vibrations

Heart warming tale of Terri Hoolet who opened a record shop in Belfast during the troubles and became the driver and father to the Belfast punk rock scene.

Dormer is quite excellent and wholly believable as the cheeky, passionate impressario, well supported by a great cast, particularly Whittaker as his loving, long suffering wife. The film never becomes depressing, but the difficulties Hooley faces to reach his goals against a background of political turmoil and violence so close to whom is often funny and moving. A film to life the spirits.
