I loved it!

Rating: 9/10 (26 February 2002)

I was in my late teens and early 20s in the 1980s. I loved the hair bands. Most of my friends were in bands and had major dreams of making it big some day. We loved going on the weekends to see Pantera when they were a little known hair band playing in bars. It was a fun time. I loved the hair do's and the clothes and the fun attitudes of Rock and Roll.
This movie perfectly captured a guy with a dream. I believe that it touched on reality of getting all you dreamed for and it not being as happy go lucky as you wanted.. but it didn't try to teach too much of a lesson...it wasn't preachy.. it simply showed a guy reaching his dream and deciding to bow out before it got too out of hand. I thought this movie was very well done.
I loved hearing that sound of the 80s again.
