For once the a movie is better than it's previews!

Rating: 9/10 (2 July 2008)

I was given some free tickets to go see an early screening of The Rocker and actually had to look it up online to watch the trailer because i had never heard of it. The trailer was OK but i don't think that i would have paid to see this movie. To my surprise the movie was hilarious! It had a great combination of slapstick comedy mixed with clever jokes as well. If you liked superbad or knocked up i definitely recommend that you go see this movie when it comes out in august! The combination of strange personalities of the band mates really works well and no one character is over featured. The main roll seems like it would be a Will Ferrel role but without him to run it into the ground the movie had great balance and did a great job of keeping my interest throughout.
