This movie is amazing! being the fan of 80's metal that i am, I instantly identified and appreciated the tribute. Add the fact that Mark Wahlberg has become a top-notch actor, and you have one of the most fun movies around today!

Although some might say that this movie is the typical feel-good story where dreams come true if you stick by your guns, but it really is more than that. This is also a movie of someone that had a passion, and with a serious stroke of luck, got to expand on that passion to the ultimate level.

In my opinion, Jennifer Aniston had little, if any chemistry with Wahlberg, and that may have been the one down side to this movie. However, the rest of the acting, fused with the story more than makes up for that mishap. Along with the story, is some really solid songs and singing (a special thanks to Miljenko Matijevic from the band Steelheart for lending his vocals!) which really will have you rocking with the band throughout the movie!

What I like most about the movie, is how it seems to come full-circle. Mark Wahlberg has lived the dream, he then reaches a cross-roads where he must make a desicion to continue or not?! Is it time to let some other hungry kid live a dream?

Overall, a GREAT movie, with an amazing story and an even cooler soundtrack! April 19, 2008

rating: 4 QuoteRock on! Quote
I had a good time watching this movie. It's entertaining and one that you can watch more than once and still enjoy. Rock Star also had a great cast to help keep both the action and the melodrama on an even keel.
