initial expectations |
(3) The previews looked nice and promising and all. But I'm not a big fan of the 70's. So I wasn't jumping up and down to see it or anything. |
(4) A good sounding soundtrack, some cool characters, and an intriguing storyline made me want to see this movie. |
pace |
(3) Considering it's technically over 2 hours long, I stayed interested. That's always a good sign. |
(4) For a drama/romance type movie, it moved pretty well. |
plot/story |
(4) Given its autobiographical quality, it's one hell of a journey to take for a 15 year-old kid. Excellent characterization and dramatization really get you in the groove of things. |
(5) Great story. I wouldn't have changed anything. |
cast/acting |
(4) It's a really strong cast. Great performances from everybody. Hehehe. Even the extras! |
(5) Quality that will make the actors famous... ;-) |
good stuff |
(4) Sex. Drugs. Alcohol. A kickin' soundtrack. What else can you ask for? |
(3) Other than the thought of a 15-year old kid being "de-flowered" by 3 women there's not much more to go on. But dramas and/or romances don't usually excel in this category. |
overall |
(4) A great coming-of-age movie that gives incredible insight into the wild world of rock. Definitely worth seeing at full ticket prices. |
(4) I'm really tempted to give this movie a 5 rating, meaning a "must see" movie. At the least, it's a 4, meaning this movie is worth the full ticket admission. |
