Michelle and I saw Rock of Ages, The Movie last weekend. This decision was based purely on the fact that it looked horrendously crap and would therefore be hilarious.

Having seen the musical that the movie is based on, I thought I'd seen it all ( Read more... )

"It's like watching your dad run around for two hours, drunk and naked. Just really awkward."

That's what it looked like it was going to be... Oh boy...

Before I saw the movie, someone said to me, "If you're looking for a good movie, don't see it. If you're looking for an enjoyable movie, then go see it."

Which is kind of a correct statement, if you can get over how cringe-worthy Tom Cruise is.

It looks fun in spite of the expected cringing!

6 out of 10?
To be honest, the only good scenes are really Tom Cruise's because at least he plays the part with some sort of conviction.

The other actors try too hard, the plot is a little cliche and some of the songs are a little too long. So you do find yourself wondering when the song will be over and the next scene will start.
