      I just want to say it's a good movie


      I just want to say that Chinese people don't understand this movie, they don't understand the spirit of rock and roll, politics and political opinions, the pursuit of dreams, Hollywood, and musicals!

      Just having big names like Tom and Zeta Jones dance and sing uncharacteristically shows the weight and magic of this movie.

      Behind the simple and ordinary plot, it tells about an era and a spirit. How can people who have not experienced it understand and how can they...

      rock or die

      The "rock years" seem to be an indefinable time category; it was the innocent years of Elvis Presley's transformation of black music into a white emotional revolution, the rebellious period of the Sex Pistols who made the Queen a sexual object, the Beatles The wave of cultural revolution with "love and peace" ... always, to find a nostalgic node for the rock era, 1987 is not a particularly good choice. One of the things that sounded rock and roll that year was when soul-singing diva Aretha...

      90's - the era of rock and roll

      The rock style in it is obviously the 90s. I didn't expect to make such a nostalgic movie in 12 years. If I rate it, the story can only be 2 stars, the songs in it really bring back a lot of memories, I give 4 stars, Ah Tang's songs remind me of Rolling Stone, The Doors, Aero Smith, Gun & Rose, Red Hot Chili Peppers , the male lead's band reminds me of bon jovi. Later, rock and roll slowly entered death metal, industrial noise, etc. It became more and more incomprehensible, and it was...

      Love entanglements and fantasies of little men and women

      Cultural differences can magnify or diminish a film's strengths and weaknesses.
              In a rock movie full of love, hate, sex, sweat, hormones and blood, it's a little fresh without hesitation. Under the exquisite and decadent clothing packaging, Tom Cruise exudes a strong male hormone.
              Under the everlasting spotlight of Hollywood, broken dreams and destroyed loves will always be thousands of times more successful than those on the stage.
              The love entanglements...

      Erdi mother... the adult version of High School Musical

      I wanted to give two stars, but for the sake of those stars, I barely got one. I really like the feeling of the 1980s. The film feels like it is in place. It combines exaggeration and comedy to tell a story that doesn't make much sense...
      When I saw the posters and previews, I had all kinds of expectations. I really felt a little chilled after watching the film. Because the expectations are so good. So the bigger the expectation, the bigger the disappointment. Except Russell Brand has the...

    Movie plot

    In Los Angeles in 1987, various rock bands and singers were springing up like bamboo shoots after the rain. In this dream city, there were two young people who came from outside to find their dreams, but they could only serve as hostesses and hostesses in bars. people.
    The girl is called Shirley Christian ( Julianne Hough ) and the boy is called Drew Boli (Diego Bonetta) . With their dreams in mind, they became the people floating in...

    Behind the scenes gags

    The story takes place in the 80s when the rock is popular. Many classic songs by singers and bands can be heard in the film, such as Def Leppard, Joan Jett, Journey, Foreigner, Bon Jovi, REO Speedwagon, Twisted Sister, Poison, Whitesnake, etc.
    The film was originally planned to be filmed in 2010 and released in 2011, but this plan failed to materialize. Later, the film started shooting in May 2011 and was released in 2012.

    Actor selection

    Choosing actors for a musical is not easy, because such a film requires both acting skills and singing skills. What's more difficult is that the film even requires some actors to dance. After a lot of choices, the crew finally determined Julianne Hough and Diego Gonzalez to play the leading actors and actresses. And Thomas Cruise Mapother IV , Alec Baldwin , Paul Giamatti and Catherine Zeta-Jones and other actors as supporting cast.
    For...

    European and American Evaluation

    The film does not require the audience to have much enthusiasm for rock, but the audience can laugh at the exaggerated melodies of the 80s in the film. ("San Francisco Chronicle" review)
    The movie can allow the audience to participate in a time travel as a spectator, so the embarrassing parts of the movie can also be forgiven. (Review of "Rearview Mirror")
    The film is completely saved by its music; it is almost impossible not to sway...

    China Evaluation

    "Rock of Ages" is a transformation of Thomas Cruise Mapother IV , often topless appearance. The Cruises I have seen in the past are all stylish and stylish men. Even if you are a killer, you have to have silver hair and a suit and leather shoes. This time Cruise is still very cool, but the eye-catching tattoo, but the rock fan is really not suitable for him, even if he performs very hard, but also has a singing voice, but the audience...

    Movie quotes

    • Stacee Jaxx: Five minutes and go!

      Constance Sack: Okay Stacee Jaxx back at the Bourbon...

      Stacee Jaxx: No, no, no. No. Now go

      Constance Sack: Uh, at the Bourbon where it all started, your first album "Stick Meat" gave birth to some of rock's greatest anthems. And now a solo career. Why now?

      Stacee Jaxx: Well... I think... I think due to the changing nature of the music industry... The change in cultural trends... And when you think of blah blah blah and blah blah blah, you make sure that you wanna take in blah blah hahaha. Four minutes

      Constance Sack: You know, some people have said that you've become quite difficult to work with. That you're constantly late, you're reclusive, sometimes even nonsensical

      Stacee Jaxx: I wanna ask you this: Have these people, even met themselves?

      Constance Sack: Well, I'm talking about your band

      Stacee Jaxx: Let me tell you something. I know me better than anyone because I live in here. Eight minutes

      Constance Sack: You just said four

      Stacee Jaxx: Three

      Constance Sack: Do you think that it's possible, that you've shut down or alienated so many people, that you had no other option but to go solo?

      Stacee Jaxx: You gotta be true to the muse. Hey Man, scotch me, little buddy

      Constance Sack: And who is your muse? Ahem

      Constance Sack: Born Steven Jackson in Detroit Michigan...

      Stacee Jaxx: Are we out?

      Constance Sack: ...Raised by a single mom, Doris, now deceased. Dropped out of Woodrow Wilson High in 11th grade. Your first concert was Aerosmith. When you were 17 you hitchhiked to LA with your high school sweetheart. Remember her? No comment? Hmmm?

      Stacee Jaxx: Two minutes

      Constance Sack: Did I hit a nerve? Aerosmith? Detroit? High school sweetheart? Jenny Anderson, your first love. And your last hit single "I'm gonna rock you in your mouth" it was written about her

      Stacee Jaxx: Record sold 100 million copies

      Constance Sack: And that record was produced about eight years ago. Some people say you've sold out since then

      Stacee Jaxx: I sell out all right. Every seat, every stadium I ever play

      Constance Sack: Yeah, and yet creatively you've come to a standstill. You've been in and out of the studio for the past, what? Two years? And no results. Nothing

      Stacee Jaxx: Time

    • Constance Sack: [after the interview] You know you're not so weird. You're just another lonely man with many regrets

      Stacee Jaxx: I said time. You can go now

      Constance Sack: Final question. What happens when you realize you can't get rid of Stacee Jaxx?

      Stacee Jaxx: You have no idea what it's like to be me

      Constance Sack: Well, then here's your chance. What's it like to be the Stacee Jaxx?

    • Constance Sack: You know, I think you get this sense of entitlement due to the fact that you're a rock god. But it's not real. It's not love

      Stacee Jaxx: No. It's not love.

      Constance Sack: Then what is it?

      Stacee Jaxx: Off the record? Sex. And other people's projections of what they want me to be. Or what you and all your readers want me to be. Sex And it keeps me from going out... and getting the one thing that could save me. But I can't have that now. I'm a slave to rock 'n' roll. I am searching for the perfect song... the perfect sound that will make you wanna live forever. Like I said, I know me better than anyone because I live in here... and no one else can...

      Constance Sack: I can...
