Pretty Good Rock Biopic

Rating: 8/10 (2 December 2019)

I like rock music, I like Joan Jett, but I didn't know much about The Runaways, I know a bit more now, and enjoyed the film. It is the best film I have seen about a rock band, ever!
Dakota Fanning and Kristen Stewart were great, as well as the supporting cast, the film was well made, well directed and well shot, and covered the story fairly well, my only quibble is that they could have done more of the music rather than focus on the problems, however that is entertainment, people prefer to see the seedier side for some reason, and this film fills that role, but apart from that I liked it.
Its called 'The Runaways' but in reality it is mostly about Cherie Currie, its a pity they did not include more of the relationships between Cherie and the rest of the band, I suppose because the others (Lita Ford and Jacki Foxx) did not want to contribute and Sandy West had died, but they covered her relationship with Joan Jett well (Joan did contribute).
Well done!
