Critic Reviews for The Five Heartbeats
All Critics (16) | Top Critics (3) | Fresh (6) | Rotten (10) | DVD (2)
The rise and fall of a flashy, fictional 1960s rock group.
The charitable might be tempted to describe The Five Heartbeats as wholesome and well-intentioned -- but so is a 6-year-old who just crayon-scrawled "I love cookies" on the living room wall.
An underrated drama about the ups and downs of a Temptations-like r&b group with solid acting and fine music. If you haven't seen it, rent it. It's worth it.
A once or future 'VH1 movie that rocks.'

Audience Reviews for The Five Heartbeats
Thats bullshit! This was one of the best movies of the 90's. I had all the elements of life! I almost forget these guys are acting! I love them!
Nothing spectacular but entertaining nonetheless. The Five Heartbeats would have been much more affective if it were a true story but as is some decent performances made this film, even with its made for tv production value, enjoyable enough for fans of music.
Critics can sometimes get it sooo wrong. This is a fun and entertaining film with great music and performance numbers. See it!!
