Over-Seasoned
In the Clint Eastwood-directed "Jersey Boys" John Lloyd Young reprises his Tony-winning portrayal of legendary Frankie Valli, lead singer of the Four Seasons. The movie, like the musical, overstuffs the plot. Valli suffered a harrowing family tragedy that makes its way into the narrative. Yet with so much attention paid to the band and so little to his personal life up to that point, the misfortune feels shoehorned in as a way to exhibit the hero hitting rock bottom. Overall, though, fans of the musical will be pleased. And for those who love the Four Seasons' music but haven't made it to the play, you can put your fear of missing out to rest. (Rated R; profane language.) Warner, $35 Blu-ray
