Additional InformationThe alliteratively named Allen Arkush directs this fine biopic which tracks the legendary career of The Temptations. One of R&B's most influential, revered bands, the five men enjoyed overnight success and helped define the Motown period. Like many other success stories, though, this one has a dark side -- with self-destructive impulses and personal problems threatening to destroy the band's reign. In addition to capturing the drama of the group's rise and fall, THE TEMPTATIONS features eight of the classic songs which made them legendary, including "My Girl," "Papa Was A Rollin' Stone," and "Get Ready."

  • Old skool at its finest.

    I thoroughly enjoyed the movie. It was good to learn of the forming of an iconic group. The story was mostly Otis Williams softy, I thought. But very entertaining and gave u a better understanding of the group.
