      pj m Haven't watched yet, BUT ALSO listed as ROCK MY WORLD on my EPIX list. In case you can't find. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Audience Member Much better than the reviews. I actually enjoyed the move especially Peter Finch and Joan Plowright as well as Martin Clunes as the sneaky and devious music agent. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/24/23 Full Review Audience Member Eight-time Oscar nominee Peter Oâ??Toole is stuck with an ensemble whose acting would embarrass the â??Saved By The Bellâ?? cast in this straight-to-video mess. He still shines in the momentary chances heâ??s given as an aristocratic snob hosting party-obsessed rock stars for a week. The only other highlightâ??Alicia Silverstoneâ??s virtuoso bass guitar playingâ??sadly accounts for only three minutes of a very long 106-minute film. Because itâ??s so completely off kilter, itâ??s almost as fun to watch as an ancient â??Beach Blanket Bingoâ?? movie, but this zany mess is from 2002. C-minus. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/23/23 Full Review Audience Member A silly movie elevated substantially by O'Toole and Plowright. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/01/23 Full Review Audience Member A rock band bursts onto the scene and then their frontman disappears on the eve of a European tour. stars Alicia Silverstone, Peter O'Toole, Joan Plowright, Lochlyn Munro, Jamiz Woolvett, Keram Malicki-Sanchez, Christopher Bolton, Martin Clunes and Amy Phillips. directed by Sidney J. Furie. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/24/23 Full Review Audience Member silly film, with wanna be rocker, nothing new. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/03/23 Full Review Read all reviews Post a rating
