Review of Rock of Ages (2012) by Patrick P — 17 Jan 2019
The problem with Rock of Ages isn't the soundtrack, as the song choices are pretty stellar classic rock 'n roll tunes. The issue isn't the supporting cast either as the big time actors/actresses are fine for the most part.
The biggest problem is that the two leads are awful... in acting. Their romance story approaches Attack of the Clones level of cheese, and ruins whatever good this movie has to offer. Which isn't very much because the singing isn't all that impressive.
The cover of Foreigner's "I Want to Know What Love Is" is embarrassing. I'm sorry but I don't care if a film is well choreographed if the main characters suck and the singing, (especially for a musical) is lame.
