Making Music can be "romantic" and "fun"

Rating: 9/10 (5 July 2016)

I hate 80's music, but I love this movie. It captures the innocence of making music for fun and romantic profit.
It's not realistic, it's not historically accurate - but it is FUN! Probably 90% of humans felt bullied by someone in school, this flick turns that resentment on it's head! It has a lot of "style", and substance: broken home, broken school, broken town, broken country - what's a kid to do? Form a band that's what! The dichotomy of one brother who got beaten down by the "system", and one who fought back the only way He knew how is the underlying theme! For all of Us who ever wondered about the girl who got away, because We weren't cool enough - this is Your Movie!
