Garage Days Trailers

The story of a young Sydney band trying to get a foothold in the competitive world of rock n' roll. After the band's first gig is a colossal failure, the lead singer takes it upon himself to go out and pursue the most successful rock manager in the country. Meanwhile, the other members of the band continue to deal with the kind of everyday life issues that can ultimately tear a band apart. It may be the dawn of a new millennium, but it's still a long way to the top if you want to rock n' roll.

Plot so thin, it passes unnoticed.

While it doesn't offer any answers, it both thrills and makes you think.

This movie feels like it was made purely to piss off people who want good shows

GARAGE DAYS (dir. Alex Proyas) A strange film because it's a rock'n'roll movie that does not embrace the clichéd rock'n'roll fairy tale, but aims for just the opposite. GARAGE DAYS is about learning to accept your limitations and struggling with something that is really important regardless of your degree of success. Set in Australia the film has a 'local' feel, although Alex Proyas, the director, makes the film as big in scope as a classic of the rock genre. The perennial romance of rock'n'roll is the belief that a small but influential voice can overcome overwhelming odds and attain massive popularity and success. But the message of GARAGE DAYS is that after all of their struggle, the band members don't come close to fulfilling their rock'n'roll fantasy, but are still satisfied with their lives.

I thoroughly enjoyed this film, it is a good fun comedy and doesn't try to be something it's not. I would highly recommend this film, it has some great laughs in it and is a feel good movie. Not another cheesy comedy, but something a bit different. Nor is it another Hollywood cliché where everything always works out in the end. The end feature during the credits is a good finish to the film. One of those movies that you will probably enjoy more the second time around because of its light hearted nature, much like Zoolander in some ways the jokes although they aren't always the best written out there are delivered particularly well by the characters. So what are you waiting for?

Well, I got mixed feelings about this movie after I saw it. The story is not really bad... and it tries to show what Rock And Roll is about... dreams! But the band image...... I think it happened as many other Rock And Roll movies. The band doesn't look real, it looked as a fake, hand-made band. There's no authenticity in the band. They look like some kinda punk-garage band (specially the bass girl), but the song they're playing at the end sounds as an 80's power ballad or so. The guy doing drums looked more like a techno-whatever D.J. And the other band, the one that it's supposed to be the successful band, is called "Sprimp"... what kinda name is that, for Christ sake?

watch out for Alex Proyas! he is among the first video clip director make an expansion to movie. so no wonder the strong music video execution shown clearly on 'the crow', 'dark city', 'i robot', and 'garage days'.the story is interesting, but i'd flop my eyes out on the cinematography and final execution of this movie... it's like the big collection of music video...the colors, the angle, even the still moments are amazingly captured and exposed by the director. and playing with the musical theme, fits his character and directorial style perfectly.for great pleasurable evening movie, i recommended you this one...-x-
