This is a film about growth and dreams and American rock dreams. The style is very similar to a light comedy like "Rock Campus", with friendship, love, affection, and a happy ending, even with a strong inspirational color. Typical theme of the American dream. Damn, Lao Mei is really good at this subject matter. When I watched the film, I felt that the screenwriter was definitely a professional writer, and he was still a team work. Whether it is the scale and rhythm of the film, the funny plot inside, or the emotional changes of the characters, they are all well-handled and remarkable.
Roughly speaking, at the end of the 1980s 20 years ago, popular metal was becoming popular in the United States. A fancy little band (V for short) composed of a few young people was given to Whitesnake. Because of the acquisition of the agent and the record company, they kicked off the drummer who had been together for many years, and then went out of the underground to become a big-name commercial band. The kicked drummer, our protagonist, has since been devastated and life is lonely. Twenty years later, this buddy is in his 30s and his life and feelings are in a mess. He works in a hapless company and spends his days living in his sister's house. In the episode of staying at his sister's house, he was invited to participate in his nephew's small band (called ADD) for a high school dance party performance. It was just such a coincidence that the drummer of his nephew band just quit at this time. After that, the dude’s 20-year-old rock passion was once again inspired, and he took up drumsticks and this group of children who were not a generation at all and walked on the road to rock. However, the music scene has changed in the past 20 years, and the age and understanding of rock music are so incompatible with the young ones now, but this is the joke of the film. How can he win and cater to the tastes of young people now? The screenwriter is too bluff here, and in an absurd but reasonable way, the small band has completed the process from hopeless to starry. (Selling a key, what on earth, you will know after watching the film). After that was a national tour. The protagonist (Dwight Schutte in the US version of "The Office", an extremely funny character, my favorite) completed his own growth during the tour and worked with the band members. As an indispensable part of the band, I even gained love, I rely on. The other members of the band also gradually understood the true meaning of rock music (true JB acid). In addition, the bass chick is really delicious, praise.
In the end, the screenwriter arranged for them to do a warm-up for the now popular V band, which was kicked out 20 years ago. Of course, the screenwriter would arrange it like this. When the enemy meets, it was quite jealous. Guess what, they were completely in the limelight during the performance. Overwhelming the V band, and even the V band was ousted from the stage, ADD was a huge success. (Isn't it a bit of a bullshit? How did the screenwriter do it, sell another pass).
SO, ANYWAY, the film is quite entertaining, absolutely PG-13.
PS: Watching this film reminds me of the two movies I watched when I was a child, and they are all about rock dreams. One of them is named "Crossroad", which is said to be based on steve vai, but I have to say Not this one. It’s another movie, it’s an old movie, but I can’t remember the name. It was a 2B young man who loves rock and roll but is a little idiot and dreams all day. He became a super rock star. One day, a wizard came to him and said that he could help him realize his dream and become a super rock star. The price is to hand over his soul to the devil in exchange. Of course he agreed, and I will change too. He woke up the next day and became the king of super invincible rock and roll. From the style (long hair shawl, full body tattoo And metal pendants, pedal boots) to the guitar playing skills have become unparalleled, the original doghouse has also become a variety of cattle B guitar exhibition hall, there are a few semi-naked beauties on the bed for him to play, very Bull B, haha. You can imagine that one day you suddenly become Yngwie Malmsteen or Slash or Angelo. but! ! It’s not that easy. The result of exchanging souls with the devil is that his anus grows to his chest, and he can never eat any more. Anything will flow out of the new anus in his chest after eating. Then he must survive by killing people. The road of the god of rock and roll goes farther and farther. I have everything about the god of rock and roll. The scenery on the stage is infinite. There is a scene that I can still remember. A band is performing a large-scale performance. This B directly rushed to the stage and kicked the guitarist off the stage. , And then plugged it into my piano, and used the shadowless hand to come to a SOLO of Niu B to shock the audience. Also, for the first time, I saw playing a guitar with each of my left and right hands! ! ! ! In fact, it is a piano with a head from the left and the right, and then the left and right hands are played only by hitting and hooking the strings, and they are also invincible and fast. Later, I also saw Angelo do it (I couldn't recognize it at that time, and now I doubt that Angelo played that film). Later, he finally broke out in the East Window. He was found to be a murderous monster, and then he was hunted down. Somehow, he seemed to be going to perform a religious ritual. It seemed that he was going to use a woman's blood to sacrifice the devil for immortality or something, the film changed. It's very weird. There is an altar surrounded by candles. The naked beauty is tied to it and waits to be sacifice by him. But if you do anything wrong, you will die. Just when the ceremony is going on,
This film is too dark, absolutely R-rated, it combines blood, violence, vulgarity, horror, sex, rock and roll of the 90s, and Satanism! ! I dare say that it was the darkest movie I ever watched when I was a kid! ! WOW, you can imagine the shock it brought to the young mind of a thirteen or fourteen-year-old boy like me. I once fell into the nightmare brought by this film and couldn’t help myself. I dreamed that such a wizard would come to me. By my side, give me such an offer, that is so cool, FxxKING AWESOME!! TEN MILLION TIMES SHIT LOAD OF BRILLIANT !!!!
Unfortunately, he did not come, and I can’t remember the name of the film, I WISH I COULD WATCH THAT MOVIE AGAIN!
Pulling away, END.
