Mark Wahlberg is phenominal in this movie. He abandoned his rapper image totally to do this. I thought this was great movie. It's based on true story. This guy got to live a lot of people's dreams. As for Jenifer Aniston,... Full review

The crass ugliness of excess, orgies, trashed hotel rooms and groupies with 'pussy passes' are candidly exposed, and Rock Star delivers more than expected by bringing us back to reality in an unexpected and understated way. For the first time Jennifer Aniston (who looks sensational) is given an opportunity to portray a character with more than the sweet and lightness of her TV persona. ... Full Review

It's easy to pinpoint: Rock Star lacks soul. In all fairness, the music in Rock Star has a nice, full energy. Aniston, however, looks bewildered and out of place. ... Full Review
