Review of Rock Star (2001) by Dave R — 26 Jan 2012
By day Chris Cole (Mark Whalberg) repairs photocopiers. By night he takes the stage as frontman for a tribute band emulating Steel Dragon, the world's hottest heavy-metal band. Then, suddenly, opportunity rocks: Chris is tapped to become Steel Dragon's new lead singer. Just like that, he goes from small-town nobody to megastar. Just like that, he and his manager/ girlfriend Emily (Jennifer Aniston) enter a world crazier than either imagined.
Also stars Timothy Olyphant, Jason Fleming, Timothy Spall, Dominic West, Dagmara Dominczky, Matthew Glave and Stephen Jenkins.
Directed by Stephen Herek.
