"Rick Astley: Never Gonna Give You Up" is a 3.5-minute music video and the performer and title of the song are listed in this "movie" title. It runs for 3.5 minutes and was directed by Simon West. And it is probably among the most known 80s music videos know thanks to the concept of rickrolling. Astley was around the age of 20 when he made this one, but his voice sounds so much older and this is maybe the most entertaining thing about it and also the main reason why it got so popular. But admittedly the song is pretty catchy too, even if Astley is not exactly proving great vocal range here. The music video is nothing special overall I guess. As a whole, this is still a fun watch, even today and I give it a thumbs-up. Worth watching, and even more so listening to. Just don't expect the summary of this video to actually happen in the video because if you do, then you get verbally rickrolled.
