This is just a short review since there isn’t really much to say about The Rocker that you probably couldn’t already guess from the commercials. I am a big fan of Rainn Wilson from his role on The Office so I was looking forward to seeing this movie. As I had expected he did a really good job and managed to keep the PG-13 rating so the audience isn’t just limited to adults.
I was also really impressed by the music in the film which was very good thanks to Teddy Geiger who plays Curtis. He has a great voice and has quite a few other musical credits that I didn’t even know about. Overall this is a pretty funny movie that’s worth renting and even watching with your parents. Oh and the cameo’s from the SNL guys & Bradley Cooper were totally hilarious. Not the mention those outfits…seriously there should be a museum for the horrific attire that was made popular in the 80′s. Those fashions belong behind glass, and should stay there forever.
Best One Liners:
A lot of elevators play Celine Dion – that doesn’t make it right.
Are you kidding me? Look at him, it’s like Abercrombie is making people now.
Some people carry a rabbit’s foot; I like to rock a pocket of puke.
Bottom Line: TOTALLY RENTABLE
- Meet Zeek
So I re-designed my little blogette. I though it needed something other than a header made in Microsoft(c) Paint. Yay for CS3!! Plus this allows me to introduce Zeek, my new mascot. I don’t know if I will keep him but I have recently become fascinated by Zebras. I mean, isn’t it ironic that an animal who has one of the more deadly predators on earth stalking it stands out so much naturally? It’s like in nature the Zebra just decided to say “Yea, I’m here and I’m totally fab!”
Tomorrow will probably suck. And I am not even a glass half empty kind of person but it’s just a factoid that having to wake up at the butt-crack of dawn tomorrow to have a CT scan isn’t exactly morning cartoons and a bowl of cereal. I have no idea what they are going to do in this CT scan thing but hopefully it won’t suck as much as the ultrasound.
Btw, did anyone see The Office last night? That was a classic and there is even a Is Hilary Swank Hot or Not site. I voted too and it was most definitely a yes. She is amazingly talented and not afraid to play roles that don’t make her look like a beauty queen. And 30 Rock was great last night too. I have recently started really liking that show. Yay for Tina Fey!
