albert 13th Sep 2016		Review Johnny Suede is a jerk, a star-struck no-talent loser who daydreams he is as gifted as his heroes. He lives a dead-end existence in a scummy flat and spends more time on his look than practicing on his guitar. One day a pair of suede shoes literally crashes into his life, could they help bring the success he dreams of, or will his new girlfriend manage to make him see the reality. 6 people found this review helpful. ✔︎ Helpful Review?



albert 11th Sep 2016		This is a great movie, I laughed all the way through it, there are so many moments of comic put-downs for tragic Johnny - many of which are self inflicted. Note that the American cinema version cuts a fairly crucial scene right at the end of the movie which gives Johnny's character a sort of undeserved redemption.
