I cannot think of one single thing that I would change about this film. The acting is incomparable, the directing deft, and the writing poignantly brilliant.

The storyline feels a little thin and moth-eaten in parts but this sequel is plenty of fun.

A great movie, one of the best of this year. There was a bit of confusion at one point in the plot, but nothing serious.

A clunky actioner with a handful of cool moments.

When I was a kid, growing up in the 70s, my parents had a stereo unit with an 8track player. It was so much fun pushing in the tape and pressing the track buttons. Unfortunately, the player eventually broke and my parents decided to buy a new stereo unit, without an 8track player, much to my dismay. The 8-track tapes that we had made their way to the trash bin soon afterward. It wasn't until 1997, in Philadelphia, when I attended a screening of the film "So Wrong They're Right", that I remembered the 8-track tape. Watching these people speak about their 8 track collections was fascinating, and made me want to go out and start my own collection...which I did! The people interviewed in the film were not nostalgic, or trying to re-live their youth, but rebelling against the culture of forced consumerism that is still very prevalent today (think VHS tapes vs DVD's). I truly enjoy listening to the music on an 8track as opposed to a CD. One thing I noticed was that if I set the volume on my stereo...play a CD, and then play an 8-track tape...the volume when the 8-track played would be much louder than the CD, all without adjusting the volume. Just one of the many things to love about 8-tracks! Long live the 8-track!

I saw this probably 5 years back and used to work at Kinko's with Russ Forster but we've since lost touch. Really enjoyed the film ... interesting characters that Russ encountered in his journeys. Interestingly, the film is not really about 8-track tapes at all. The people (I call them characters because they are characters in many ways), certainly share 8-track interest in common but they are quirky. I never figured out exactly why they are attracted to the obsolete technology. Why do I still own an 8-track player/recorder and what do I have in common with these people? My theory is that the people share a bit of a misfit self image, but the film does not choose to make this judgment for you.Very entertaining, recommended if you can find it. I have no idea how you could get a hold of this these days. It made the indie film tour 5 years ago, I don't think it ever made it beyond that :-(

"So Wrong They're Right (1999) delivers fascinating tales about 8-track tapes by the most die-hard collectors, including folks like Abigail Levine, James "Big Bucks" Burnette, and the nappy-haired Phil Millstein, who appears to have pulled off some sort of Frankenberry slurpin' hibernation feat in his parent's basement.The highlight of this gem is its' raw, amateurish footage, and its' candid commentary, complete with titillating insights from some very offbeat collectors. Some of the bands and/or artists mentioned are Lou Reed, the Stooges, Roxy Music, Johns Children, the Sex Pistols, Yoko Ono, Mingus and many others. The film's rough & worn, homemade quality only adds to its brilliance, prompting some to think it was made in the 1970's and not the 1990's.

This is a terrific little independent film that explores the world of a small group of very likeable eccentrics that prefer the dead recording format of 8 track tapes. I enjoyed the movie so much that I became a convert and picked up an 8 track myself.
