Slant Magazine

The director manages to instill every moment on the road with a sense of shrill conventionality.

Those who go looking for tragic relevance in Scott Rosenbaum's debut indie won't find much to grasp onto.

Rated: 2/5

You'd be better off renting "Eddie and the Cruisers" (1983) than slogging through this latest, far more dire recycling of the same rock clichs.

Rated: 1/4

[VIDEO]...a knock-off of a knock-off movie that has the audacity to attempt to authenticate its rock 'n' roll credibility by casting a giant like Peter Fonda in a supporting role. Shame.

Rated: D

[Despite] a rousing jam with elder blues icons [and] Zegers' showy role. . .story feels like a studied period recreation for the History Channel.

Rated: 4/10

One Guy's Opinion

Cliche-ridden and ineptly made...a period piece that would have been moldy even twenty years ago.

This has to be one of the worst movies I've ever seen. Within 15 minutes I only kept watching to see how much worse it could get. Much worse. The acting was horrendous, the story was a washed up cliche. I wonder how the person who put up the money to produce this is doing mentally after realizing what a waste of money this was.

Slow film - not worth the time. The music is pretty good, but otherwise it is a very slow and boring film
