To the Deeper Thoughts!
<\/strong>I really liked this movie.  A movie full of 80s classics framing a story of love and loss in 1980s LA?  I’m in!<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Based off of the musical of the same name, Rock of Ages is just a fun movie.  I’ve not seen the musical, but after seeing the movie, I would really like to.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Not much to the movie, really.  Sherrie comes to LA looking for fame.  Instead she finds Drew and the rest of the characters at The Bourbon Room.  Then there is the former rock groupie, turned wife of the mayor Patricia Whitmore.  She wants to shut down The Bourbon Room, because sex drugs and rock and roll are all bad.  Throw into the mix Stacee Jax’s final performance as a bid to save The Bourbon Room, and the stage is set.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Really not too many deep thoughts to go on about with this movie.  Its nothing fancy, nothing flashy.  Just a good simple movie with some great music.  Give it a watch.  If you like 80’s tunes, and Tom Cruise going full 80s rocker, then this film is for you!<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
