The plot is severely simple. Eddy (who bears a shocking resemblance to Roger Daltry) wants to impress the girls, and having a guitar just isn’t doing it. So, in order to grab some tail, he gets a job so he can afford a motorcycle. Bikes, which are affordable, just don’t garner enough attention aside from laughs. For the novelty of its plot and the time it’s set in, “Fizzy Days” is worth your attention; it’s not only entertaining, but utterly unique in terms of humor and characterization. Eddy is a man whose ambition extends towards having sex with many women, and being a rock star isn’t getting him there. “Fizzy Days” is a fun breezy heist comedy based around Eddy, and his friends trying to find the money to afford their beloved “Fizzy” aka a moped which will surely rocket them to the women.

In the spirit of films like “A Christmas Story”, the fizzy is that one item that our hero Eddy must have beyond everything else, and he has his demented fantasies of owning one and attaining the girl of his dreams. “Fizzy Days” is long enough for its story and never feels padded or stretched, and its comedy is endearing. Millicent’s production has a certain intimacy, and the film is basically after my heart as it takes place in a time where rock was king. I enjoyed the antics by this group seeking out to make money, which includes shoplifting, and a botched robbery thanks to their young accomplice. Does Eddy end up with a moped? Well, you’ll just have to see for yourself.

I enjoyed "Fizzy Days" mostly because its story is perfectly compact, and intimate. Millicent's direction compliments an otherwise entertaining and utterly hilarious film about the search for the holy grail: Women.
