Movie Reviews of Prey for Rock & Roll
Movie Review: No one is forcing you to watch, so stop whining.
Summary: 5 Stars
Firstly, I'd just like to say that I find it pretty damn hilarious how the men who reviewed this movie call it an "exploitation of women," when this movie couldn't have been farther from the truth. If you're looking for a cheap softcore porn film or lots of nude scenes, this isn't for you.
Like sports movies, I'm tired of the less-than-realistic and cheesy rock movies. You don't always make it to the big time. In fact, you don't always catch a break and get a gig playing simply in a club. This movie is the story of one band, Clam Dandy, that did not make it. A true story, by the way, for those of you who complained about the rape and other dramatic elements.
I'm not going to bother reviewing every sequence, you'll just have to watch the movie. I liked it. Period. If Gina Gershon isn't reason enough to see this movie, here's another: she sings both the songs and plays the guitar. Now that's sexy.
Movie Review: Amazing...
Summary: 5 Stars
What happens when you have a dream, you go for it...and you come up short? This film is a realistic portrayal of the nitty-gritty, dark underbelly of the rock scene. Jacki (Gina Gershon) is an aging rock star with real-life problems...should she keep pursuing the dream and be a 60-year old wanna-be rock star? Or is it time to stop? The movie also shows the consequences your decisions can have on your friends. Gina Gershon give a powerhouse performance hear, even signing all the vocals, and is just flat-out spectacular.As for the quality of the DVD...the movie appears to have been filmed digitally and the picture quality is excellent for a small-budget film such as this one. The sound is great as well. I just wish there were more extras on the making of the movie & perhaps some raw footage of Gina singing.
Movie Review: 4 1/2 stars = HOT MOVIE

Summary: 5 Stars
Being someone who actually lives in LA, who used to frequent the rock clubs of Hollywood where this film is set (not Silverlake -- Argyle crosses Hollywood Blvd near Vine) and WeHo, who is friends with many musicians, straight, gay and in between, and who LOVES most expressions of rock, I love this film for its realism and passion. I wish there were more films that told it like it is instead of the plasticized fantasies than some reviewers seem to have expected.
Movie Review: Not a Fairytail
Summary: 5 Stars
I am tired of the films that show the person making it big in the end.This is a more realistic picture of the rock world. The characters are well scripted, and acted. From Girshon's lead to Blucas' Animal, every character lets you understand their view of the world. Possibly too many tragidies, but I understand this was based on a true story. Definately would recommend this to the educated viewer.
