Review of Rock Star

Rock Star (2001)
6/10
Not great but surprisingly good
9 February 2007
This is a bit of a Cinderella story about a wannabe rock star who makes the grade and subsequently brings his girlfriend/manager (Aniston) into the world of the whole rock scene with him. The deeper he gets into it the more troubled their relationship becomes and after a while even the good times don't seem so good to him.

I suppose it is a little contrived and the second half doesn't have the freshness and "what will happen next" anticipation of the first part but nevertheless it's a decent watch.

This was the first role I'd seen Jennifer Aniston in other than as Rachel in "Friends" and it opened my eyes to the fact that she really is a very good actress. I've seen her in other films since such as "The Good Girl" and she is definitely far more than just a pretty face.
