Critic Reviews
-
Anthony Lane, New Yorker
Rock of Ages is not a spoof, but it might as well be, given how little there is to root for.
-
Glenn Kenny, MSN Movies
...a cinematic endeavor that, for all intents and purposes, is asking the consumer to put down his or her money to watch movie stars do karaoke.
-
Laremy Legel, Film.com
Cruise, as Stacee Jaxx, is the living embodiment of a rock god.
-
Richard Roeper, Richard Roeper.com
Every time an actor belts out a hit, you're reminded that the original, however cheesy, was better.
-
Christopher Orr, The Atlantic
The movie's supporting stars are always, inevitably, winking at the audience, but it's unclear whether the dewy-eyed leads even know how to blink.
