Who’s Next fans – and who’s not – will be delighted by this 50 minute documentary. More celebratory than insightful, it also suffers from a few omissions. However it’s all good when Pete Townshend, Roger Daltrey and John Entwistle marvel at how their benchmark album came into existence. Long…

‘Quit singing and jam’ remains my reaction to many Cream songs, including from their defining album. So it’s less than optimal that this rockumentary focuses on Disraeli Gears’ lyrics, lyricists and singing. David Fricke’s commentary is terrific however. More to the point, their music ser…

What was supposed to be a story about a Metallica roadie on an urgent mission turns out to be basically a concert film, but Dane DeHaan does give it the ‘ol college try – but didn’t have much of a chance in the aimless and over the top secondary story line. That said, if you are a Metallica fan,… |

I liked this movie. A bit campy/fairy-tale for some, but for people who really appreciate the affect music can have, it will tug at some emotional strings within you. Freddie Highmore does a good job as the orphan. It was interesting to watch Robin Williams in a quasi-bad-guy-yet-good-in-a-way ch… |

I liked the movie, though I thought I would enjoy it more because of all the hype I had heard. However, that being said, it is an interesting romp through history following the path of this single violin. Plus, with a soundtrack that can’t be beat, you’re sure to enjoy this film. |

John C. Reilly’s Walk Hard plays like a feature-film SNL skit, all the more because many in the large cast are SNL players, including Kristen Wiig, Tim Meadows & Chris Parnell. Weekend Update never arrives, but you half expect it to. Often funny yet strivingly ambitious, Walk Hard’s reach wel…

A Late Quartet is a pleasant surprise, a little movie getting its main airplay nowadays at 30,000 feet. Tune in when it comes on if you appreciate intelligent interpersonal drama, with relatable adults working through the consequences of a lifetime of decisions, mistakes and challenges. Four …

Begin Again is a low-key treat for grownups in need of a quality Date Night Movie. More a music romance than a people romance, music lovers and especially musicians will find in it a true bonus: Great Music! Mark Ruffalo & Keira Knightly are terrific separately and have great chemistry toge…

I really enjoyed Jaime Foxx’s version of the great Ray Charles. The movie was as entertaining as a biopic gets. Jaime’s acting great – he seemed to become Ray himself. I simply forgot that I was watching an actor and not the legend. The movie surrounds itself with Ray’s wonderful music and give… |
