    Not bad, not bad at all

    Went I went to this movie, I didn't know what to expect, I was just bored on a Wednesday. However, I was happily surprised once it was finished. It was a comedy that didn't seem based on completely stupid humor, such as Tropic Thunder (good movie none the less) and Pineapple Express. I will admit though, it would probably go over better for the girls then the guys as it has an underlaying tone of chick-flick to it. Romance was a big theme after all, though it doesn't necessarily show in the previews. However, I would recommend this movie to anyone and I think it would be a great date movie.

    HE Stole the show!!

    I thought the movie "the Rocker" was very great.
    i loved every minute of it. The music was AMAZING.
    From the REMARKALBE newcomer (to movies) Teddy Geiger! he stole the hole show with his beautiful talent ...he lit up the hole screen, it was very good for his first time being in a movie..very cute!!
    One thing I would change is having Emma Stone in the movie, she was not very funny..or noticably talented. Teddy made the movie great, i hope he continues to be in movies! cause he is very amazingly talented! without him the movie might of not been sooo incredible.

    Pretty Funny! Some memorable lines!

    I was kind of expecting this to be another cheesy movie that I'd regret seeing, but since it had Dwight (The Office) in it, I had to see it.
    It was hilarious! I went to see it a 2nd time with another friend. There are some great lines in, a few things you keep thinking about later on that makes you laugh.

    I recommend this movie if you like slapstick comedies. It was pretty clean, too. No nudity, other than Dwight's butt, which was just hilarious, not sexual at all. It had a few dirty jokes, but nothing crazy.

    A must see!

    Another "Superbad", IMHO. A terrific movie--especially attractive for middle-aged folks. Good humor without, only occasionally venturing into the yuk-yuk stuff. Four thumbs up.

    Hilarious

    This movie was such a surprising treat. I ditched Mamma Mia! and walked into The Rocker about 45 minutes in - a smart move! The script is pitch perfect and the entire cast brilliant. Rates right up there with School of Rock. I am in my 40s and this movie is not dumb at all - it is witty, clever and and raucously funny. So many of the jokes just sailed right over my kids' heads while my hubby and I were rolling in the aisles. I can't wait to see the first half of this movie!

    Great Movie

    I went into the theater expecting this to be a funny movie, which it was, but it also had a great story behind it. I would absolutely recommend this to anyone! Enjoy

    The Rocker...... rock never dies...

    This movie was hilarious from the beginning.
    From the trailer start through the movie, this was a laughing movie. (much better then Tragic Blunder).
    From the old rock star...to the blubbery keyboarder....to the "hidden-Love Guitar player and lead singer, this movie appeals to all with any sense of comedy.
    "Mommy" Christina Applegate is a plus for the movie.
    Is amazing how they bring together comedy and the ever present "lip-sync" effects, the movie is a must see.
    Life on the road never could get any better then this movie shows...parties....audiences...more parties....heck it has it all!!

    This movie was fantastic. One of the best and funniest movies of the year. Rainn Wilson is excellent at working with his other cast members to create such and amazing and hilarious film that makes you start to wonder what your life would be like if you were a rocker.

    Great acting. Great movie.

    A really funny movie. Great for guys and girls. Funny, funny script. A different side of Rainn WIlson that I welcomed. The soundtrack is also excellent.

    Fantastic movie - solid summer comedy!

    The Rocker is a fresh, fun comedy with a great cast that was enjoyable the whole way through. Rainn Wilson certainly takes center stage, but good performances by Teddy Geiger and Emma Stone of Superbad are also a highlight. My friends and I laughed the whole time. Finally, a good PG-13 comedy that doesn't center around gross-out jokes (with 1 exception - the vomit part) and has a true heart. Plus, we saw Dwight of The Office in a rockin' role + 80's hair & outfits... what's not to like?

    It's not completely not worth watching, but if you've seen School Of Rock, you've seen The Rocker.
