The Story Of A Wanna Be Who Got To Be.
By day Chris Cole repairs photocopiers. By night he takes the stage as frontman for a tribute band emulating Steel Dragon, the world's hottest heavy-metal band. Then, suddenly, opportunity rocks: Chris is tapped to become Steel Dragon's new lead singer. Just like that, he goes from small-town nobody to megastar. Just like that, he and his manager/ girlfriend Emily enter a world crazier than either imagined.
Mark Wahlberg and Jennifer Aniston headline and Stephen Herek (Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure) directs this knowing, chord crunching, hair-whipping look at 80's arena rock and the price of fame. Filled with the style, strut and feel of an era, Rock Star gets it right. Long may it shine.

Rock me babay - 4 out of 5 (1/21/2002)
ROCK STAR is a film that drug me kicking and screaming back to my original
metal-headed roots. I will admit that I was not one of those infamous rocker
wannabes with a mullet cut in the eighties, but believe me it was not for
lack of trying.
So, it goes without saying that this film made me want to race out to my
Camaro, cue up the priest tape and jet across the state line to pick up a
bottle of Thunderbird with the tape cranked all the way.
And if I haven't lost you yet, then I wil
