- Reviewed in the United States on October 6, 2006Consumers love IRONY! I can sum up this film in one sentence: DJing, drugs, hummus and sex...silence...newfound appreciation for life. What makes this film great is not the fact that Frankie Wilde does drugs, rather, its HOW he does drugs (see it and you'll understand what I mean). Same thing with his DJing. The fact that he DJs is well-and-good, but you have to see HOW he DJs (pre- and post-deaf). Frankie is a special character and Paul Kaye nails this role (as he says in the DVD extras, "God, I've waited a long time for this job."). Speaking of DVD extras...WATCH THEM. Frankie the spokesmodel for Oman Whiskey, Frankie on a cooking show, Frankie on an interview with a news anchor, Frankie's Rabbi (played by Paul Kaye), among other gimmicks...classic. In regards to credentials...WINNER GEN ART FILM FESTIVAL, WINNER U.S. COMEDY ARTS FESTIVAL, WINNER TORONTO FILM FESTIVAL. And the soundtrack...exceptional club music. Particularly, Reflekt's "Need to Feel Loved" (Seb Fontaine & Jay P Remix). I guarantee you will RE-WATCH this film over and over again. Maybe you'll even take a step back and have a look at your own life?
Note: THIS FILM IS A WORK OF FICTION. IT IS A "MOCK"UMENTARY. DON'T BE FOOLED. The fact that the directors and actors deliver such a compelling final product, where consumers actually believe it is real, is testament alone that this film is a keeper.

- Reviewed in the United States on December 17, 2010This movie is funny, dramatic, sexy but most of all, inspirational. For anyone who is familar with Trance/House music, this is a great mockumentry based around DJ Sammy. Most Americans are even familar with DJ Sammy, so this is even a great movie for one who may not be particularlly interested in techno music. The movie opens with interviews from electronic music greats such as Tiesto, Paul van Dyk and more.
Most of the movie takes place in Ibiza, the Mecca for House/Trance music. For anyone who has never been to Ibiza, there is a great inside view of the these world famous clubs located in Ibiza (the real life, modern-day Studio 54). A great sound track goes naturally with this movie. Coping with his hardcore drug problem, the main character is also going def. What does a world famous DJ do with his life when he can no longer hear, lose all his fame, lose his family and all love for life? He makes a #1 selling album, whats what he does.
Some of the best "one-liners" in any movie I've seen. You've got to watch this movie, it is so inspirational that when the movie ends, you will feel like you can do anything in the world you put your mind and heart into.
- Reviewed in the United States on December 8, 2011I got this for my sister who LOVES this movie. She generously let me preview it before I gave to her as a present. It's an enjoyable movie, for sure. It's feel good but not in the usual Hollywood fake feel good style. Still as far as being unbalanced by too many drugs and alcohol it's pretty tame. I prefer Terry Gilliam's take on medicinal imbalance. The main actor plays his part convincingly. The movie has a very even plot tempo. At first I thought that the hallucination was cheap and they could have done better with animation or CGI. Once the film completed I understood why they went with the cheesy outfit.
This is not a movie you should show kids. Too young they'll think it's a puzzling comedy, too old and they'll possibly think it's a drug glorifying mess. It's good enough that I went and looked it up to see who it was based on. I think you'll like it unless you're one of those humorless religious people.
- Reviewed in the United States on October 9, 2005Paul Kaye is one of the underappreciated joys of British pop culture. He starred in the critically-acclaimed series 'Two Thousand Acres of Sky', which has finally seen airtime over here in the USA on some PBS stations. In this movie, however, he manages to take the story and character of Frankie Wilde from near-total repugnance and make him into somebody you can't help but root for. The first half of the movie is almost too intense, and may be tough going for some, but will truly prove rewarding if you hang in there. Words like 'triumph' and 'inspiration' have appeared in other reviews, and for good reason. An extra bonus is the brilliance of Mike Wilmot as Frankie Wilde's agent, Max Haggar. Stellar casting, biting commentary, and over-the-top production in the party scenes are all icing on the cake. It's a feelgood movie with unexpected turns and twists, and I hope people appreciate it for the brilliant satire and very human story that it is.
- Reviewed in the United States on May 3, 2014Love this movie. Have loved it for years. Movie wise its a really good look into the (not going to say EDM) dance music world. Especially the target of Ibiza and its culture. Which is very very different from North American take on that scene. The mock-u-mentry is really cool. It really captures the feelings and energy very well. The interviews, the cast, everyone makes it a good story to watch for years. The casting is spot on. Especially Frankie's manager. Funny guy. Good writing.
Making of featurette is good. Good music and good stories. Especially about how they blew the stereo system at one of the clubs while filming. Think it was Cream...not sure.
The ONLY con for me is that the blu ray transfer is a marginal improvement from the DVD quality. Pretty much the same issue The Matrix had if you had the DVD and got the blu ray. They were exactly the same quality.
- Reviewed in the United States on March 6, 2016OMG! this movie blows chunks! I absolutely couldn't watch it all the way through . . . so annoying!

S P MeadReviewed in the United Kingdom on May 16, 20165.0 out of 5 stars an utterly fantastic movie!
"It's All Gone Pete Tong" is amongst my all-time favourite films ... so this is not a 'neutral' review. I think it's a brilliant film - with a good story, a fantastic cast (and superb acting), great direction, and amazing music. Everything comes together to form a wonderful whole ... and the standout aspect of this film is its humour. I was smiling, cringing and laughing throughout. It's a bittersweet comedy, highly poignant, and ultimately uplifting.
This is Paul Kaye's best film, and he's perfectly cast as world-renowned club DJ Frankie Wilde - who's into drugs, casual sex, having a good time on the beach, and generally living a hedonistic lifestyle. He lives with his sexy wife and (is it his?) child in a large, comfortable property on the island of Ibiza - and everyone is happy. Unfortunately, Frankie's hearing starts to rapidly deteriorate ... and he seeks solace in a combination of ignorance and cocaine. But, after he becomes totally deaf, he can no longer pretend all is right with the world. His club dumps him, his wife leaves him, his manager abandons him ... Frankie is alone, hoping that his ears will miraculously heal. A year or so later, realising that he's a deaf man, Frankie decides to re-join society. He meets an attractive sign-language teacher (and the two of them start a relationship). And, feeling good about himself, he tries to mix music ... realising that he can "feel" the sound (the vibrations) and, as such, is able to work as a DJ. He records an album, which is highly successful, and suddenly everyone wants to be friends with the infamous deaf DJ! Only Frankie has grown up, and now only wants to settle down with his new lover and live a 'quiet' life.
I cannot recommend this movie too highly. It's a joy to watch. But I do understand that it's not for everyone ... this is a particular brand of humour, and some people just won't like it. But it's worth giving a try. You may end up loving this film!
This is a review of the Blu-ray (imported from the USA). While it's a region 1 disc, it plays on my European Blu-ray player. I also own this film on DVD. The Blu-ray version provides for a much more vibrant and clear image. However, the Blu-ray has no special features - whereas the DVD has lots!
