It's the music!

Rating: 8/10 (23 August 2019)

The story is entertaining enough, maybe too silly at times, but where the story is weak, the soundtrack comes to the rescue. All the great songs of the late 70's that I listened to as I drove around with my high school friends are here. Did we end up at a concert without tickets? Yup. We hitch hiked 10 miles to it, we were outside the fence and some other people tore part of the fence down. As they were being arrested, we jumped through the hole and ran. The cops caught 1, but 2 of us made it to the crowd and stayed for the concert and the drugs and...Back to the movie. It's the music. It's the time. So my only question is: Why would they put music by artists not from that period in the credits? If a band is going to cover a song like the "Boys Are Back In Town", it should be as good or better than Thin Lizzy or don't do it, and that's a very hard song to do better. Why not just play the original during the credits? You know, movie about the 70's with songs from the 70's in their original glory. So watch the movie. Have fun watching it. Enjoy the music. When the credits roll, press mute and put some Kiss on.
