Rock and Roll!
Rock of Ages is directed by Adam Shankman and stars Julianne Hough, Diego Boneta, Tom Cruise, Alec Baldwin, and Paul Giamatti. In this movie, a small town girl and a city boy meet up and try to pursue their Hollywood dreams. I actually wasn't planning on seeing Rock of Ages today because I missed the showing for Madagascar 3. I wasn't looking foward to this movie not only because I didn't plan on seeing it, but the trailers didn't make me want to see it.
I actually kind of liked this movi,e which suprised me. The best thing in this movie is Tom Cruise as Stacee Jaxx. He is just sucked into the role and is perfect. Tom Cruise is probably one of the best actors we have today. Julianne Hough is also pretty good and so is Diego Boneta. They have a pretty decent relationship. You also have some other good performances like Alec Baldwin and Russell Brand which bring most of the comic relief. The songs are also pretty awesome and since the movie takes place in 1987, these songs haven't come out yet so these characters made them up in the movie. I love how they introduce most of the songs. For example, the city boy played by Diego Boneta gets angry before performing and sings "I Wanna Rock!" and a reporter asks Stacee Jaxx what it is like to be him and he sings "Wanted Dead or Alive." Also, the second act of the movie where something makes the two leads go seperate ways, was boring. There isn't much to say about this movie so I'll just go ahead and rate it by giving Rock of Ages a 6/10.
