Review of Purple Rain (1984) by Gabe A — 05 May 2008
Like most rock musicals, this is short on acting and plot, but long on the music. And what music! Prince in 1984 was at his peak, creating perfect pop, and the soundtrack to this movie is batshit insanely good.
As a movie, it lacks a lot; as a vehicle for a killer soundtrack and a fascinating look at a past time (check out the makeup!), you could hardly do any better.
