Review For Rock of Ages |
Rock of Ages is not a spoof, but it might as well be, given how little there is to root for. Anthony Lane-New Yorker
...a cinematic endeavor that, for all intents and purposes, is asking the consumer to put down his or her money to watch movie stars do karaoke. Glenn Kenny-MSN Movies
Cruise, as Stacee Jaxx, is the living embodiment of a rock god. Laremy Legel-Film.com
Every time an actor belts out a hit, you're reminded that the original, however cheesy, was better. Richard Roeper-Richard Roeper.com
The movie's supporting stars are always, inevitably, winking at the audience, but it's unclear whether the dewy-eyed leads even know how to blink. Christopher Orr-The Atlantic
Pour some sugar on it, indeed. Lisa Kennedy-Denver Post
Tom, we're really not worthy. Andy Lea-Daily Star
With characters bursting into song whenever life gets too tough, the peppy, earnest and often cheesy vibe is substantially more Glee-like than you might imagine. Stephen Carty-Flix Capacitor
How could any movie fail that features a tattooed Tom Cruise belting out rock songs and Alec Baldwin in a fright wig? (Blu-ray editon) John J. Puccio-Movie Metropolis
If you grew up with the music of the 1980's and want to relive it, you may enjoy the film. For me, I could easily have skipped both the music and the movie. John J. Puccio-Movie Metropolis
Rock of Ages panders to its base without putting in the extra effort to standout as not just a competent musical but a must-see film experience for all audiences. Ben Kendrick-ScreenRant
Tom Cruise is monumentally good in this film. If this film was called Stacee Jaxx it might have been my film of the year. Adam Ross-The Aristocrat
Far from being a true "Juke Box Hero," Rock of ages still manages to delight with its own giddy brand of utter stupidity. Kristal Cooper-We Got This Covered
"Rock of Ages" just never comes together, resulting in a mishmash of mostly-bland music and undeveloped stories. Jeff Beck-Examiner.com
Rock Of Ages is a stone-cold medley of cheese and cliché. It riffs on dated guitar bands and power-anthems and it builds its city on dry ice and key changes. And yet... it still kinda rocks. Matt Looker-TheShiznit.co.uk
There are two reasons to see "Rock of Ages." One: If you live and breathe for 80s rock music. Two: A drugged up Tom Cruise belting out Bon Jovi. Unfortunately, that's about it. Justin Craig-FoxNews.com
If this isn't one of the worst movies of the year, we're all in a whole lot of trouble. William Bibbiani-CraveOnline
It's overlong, overblown and couldn't establish a convincing plot if its life depended on it, but it sings at the top of its lungs, and if you haven't gone deaf by the mid-point, you might just find yourself humming along. Martin Roberts-Fan The Fire
Would have been more honestly titled Rock for Ages -- because that's how long this headbangers ball seems to go on. Richard Knight-Knight at the Movies
The worst of Michael Schultz's Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band and Menahem Golan's The Apple with the kind of music that caused me to stop listening to radio altogether. Ken Hanke-Mountain Xpress (Asheville, NC)
... the driving beat keeps toes tapping. Jim Lane-Sacramento News & Review
An illustrative dividing line: REO Speedwagon is probably thrilled to death to be on this soundtrack - meanwhile Joan Jett is likely embarrassed that she is too. Bruce Bennett-Spectrum (St. George, Utah)
Shankman makes a lively, consistently entertaining film that blends two seemingly incompatible art forms: a Broadway musical and '80s rock 'n' roll. Dan Lybarger-eFilmCritic.com
There's little doubt that Rock of Ages benefits substantially from its fast-paced and thoroughly energetic opening few minutes... David Nusair-Reel Film Reviews
Bang your head one minute, and shake it in bewilderment the next. Steve Persall-Tampa Bay Times
This exuberant, hugely entertaining big-screen adaptation of the smash stage musical comedy doesn't put a foot wrong...[Tom] Cruise again proves he's on a mid-life career peak. Jim Schembri-3AW
