What do I say about a movie that is, by definition, bad, and yet, I like it anyway?

Rating: 6/10 (9 August 2005)

I say, "best nothing I ever spent," that's what! A word of explanation: I went to Hasting's to take an unrelated movie back, which was really scratched, explained that some scenes didn't even play, and they gave me a rain check for a free rental, and I came across Rock Star.
Mark Whalburg plays a lead singer of a cover (or a "tribute") band and gets the chance of a lifetime when he's called forth to replace the lead singer in the band that he idolizes. Not much to it, really...it kind of speeds through the whole story, which is a good thing. If it got bogged down in the whole clichés of rock-and-roll, it probably wouldn't be as enjoyable.
Acting was pretty much solid, nothing too much to complain about. Not too shabby from the guy who directed "Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure." Good for a rental, especially a free one!
