Rocj stars can't make a woman happy.

Rating: 5/10 (27 February 2018)

Dan (Mark Ruffalo) is a record producer who just got fired from the label he founded. He is separated from his wife (Catherine Keener) and his part time daughter (Hailee Steinfeld) who is the typical hurt movie teen needing a father figure. While trying to get drunk he hears Gretta (Keira Knightley) give a really rotten night club performance, although Dan hears something great.
Gretta has just broken up with her rock star boyfriend (Adam Levine). She agrees to do an album with Dan recording outdoors in different parts of the city with Dan cashing in favors to get background musicians.
The film was not a good life drama. It was not a comedy and the music was fair. It has indie appeal to aspiring writers/singers as well as indie lovers who don't know a bad movie when they see one. Knightly gave us her typical role and looks, seemingly phoning this one in. Dan was hardly likeable. And in two minutes time Gretta can solve all of the teen's problems.
I have trouble understanding the praise for a so cliche filled movie. Is this what society has come to? Mulligan seriously? Mommy make it stop. It hurts.
Parental Guide: F-bomb. No sex or nudity.
