What we think

The Sparks Brothers is an exhaustive account of the duo’s career, told with the infectious enthusiasm of a fanboy insisting you listen to his favourite band.

What others think

Over a whopping two hours and 20 minutes, film-maker Edgar Wright consummates a gigantic act of fanboy love for the glam art-pop duo Sparks.
Peter Bradshaw The Guardian
He could have gone wildly surreal in his approach, but Wright keeps things linear and focused, as every fanboy should.
Ed Gibbs Little White Lies
Edgar Wright’s first documentary seeks to pull back the curtain on one of the most imaginative, idiosyncratic, plain nutso bands in living memory.
