... View MoreI gave this film a 9 out of 10, because it was exactly what I expected it to be.
... View MoreAfter playing with our expectations, this turns out to be a very different sort of film.
... View MoreClose shines in drama with strong language, adult themes.
... View MoreI am a grown up and a rock fan, and I absolutely love this show. If you are a teenager, you will love it, if you are interested in comedies about the rock business (realistic or not is not the question, how realistic was Spinal Tap? And , yet, it was great, 11 stars ;-) ) or into rock music (cause the music is not bad at all!!), you will love it. In a world with a lot of hatred, discrimination, and, not too forget, Rap and Hiphop (loved the 6th episode!), it is great to have a nice, fair show about rock where the only offense (if at all) is directed towards the characters themselves, which are all so lovable, that you don't mind them being a bit cliched (yes, show for kids) and simple-minded. And in contrast to other kids' shows, there are not the usual,flat 'dumb grown-ups' jokes where the teachers and parents (over-re-)act like complete idiots and not in the least with the same charm or originality like Ash. Anyway, the stories are fun and inoffensive, it is realtively original, the music is great, and the lyrics even better (come on, Face down in a plate of Nachos is fabulous - lyrics, music and the performance - instant classic). I will never understand how shows like this one (and Grandfathered and Grinder) get axed while a dull show like Young Sheldon (which is nothing like Big Bang Theory or even Sheldon IN TBBT) or even worse shows get fulsome praise... A shame there is only two seasons of this great, great, funny, creative rock show.
... View MoreFirst off associating metal with this show is an insult to metal these characters are just functionally retarded and play to the stereotype of the stupid dunder headed metal musician. Secondly there is no real metal to be found here despite promises to the contrary mind you this isn't at all surprising considering this is a Disney show but they could have done a better job than poorly imitating hair rock (nope that wasn't metal) a lousy genre to begin with. I can't speak for the actors because i haven't seen most of them anywhere else caitlyn taylor love is cute and steve valentine who is kinda funny i've seen in a few other things but that's all i've got on that. I will give one compliment and say the hip hop is dead episode was pretty funny though.
... View MoreI don't understand how some people are talking about it being totally unrealistic and then they start bringing up Hannah Montanah. Talk about unrealistic. First of all, it's nothing alike (This is funny, that sucks), but second of all, I don't really see the big deal here. It's a Disney show. It's meant for kids. Why should it be realistic? It's a lot better than a lot of other kids' shows I've seen (Hannah Montanah, Zack & Cody, iCarly etc) That said, I just think it's a really funny show. I'm 17 years old right now and I just about cried because I was laughing so loud. It's not some stupid show just for kids, it's really funny. Yeah, some of the jokes are a bit lame, but that all depends on what you like. I think it's great. The characters are really funny, with the three dumb (well, two dumb and one even dumber) rockers and the one smart teenager. The jokes might be a bit easy, but they're just so random that I can't stop laughing about it.So, taken all that into account, I think this show is great! I wouldn't mind watching it again.
... View MoreThis is Hanna Montana except with a rock band, this is a piece of junk from the people and the company brought us that terrible show, A Teen wants to revive a rock band called Iron Weasel to make them become famous again, good grief, this show is just junk throughout, the performances are really bad, two completely wasted talents (Greg Baker & Steve Valentine)who been so good in other TV shows in the late 90 and early 2000's, blandy, unfunny subplots, terrible episodes and dull teleplay, this show is not only a disgrace to the true nature of metal scene, but music as a whole, this is just truly shameful, this piece of trash is top of the heap, hapless garbage and it's a shame that crap like this is still on, this is just like the crappy reality shows and other trends, all style and certainly no substance and we haters hate this one, because it's a disgrace, this is really the top candidate for the worst TV show of 2010 and it shows how television has really gone to crap after this.This is trendy, state of the art, hopeless enterprise.If you want better TV shows from Greg baker and Steve valentine, I Suggest you watch Sports Night on DVD and Crossing Jordan.This is possibly the worst show associated with music since homeboys from outer space.Truly Hopeless.
