As summer heat hangs over much of the U.S. it's time to cool off with a couple of off-beat productions this week. First there's 'The Runaways,' a high-octane musical biodrama about the first all-girl rock 'n' roll band that features stand-out performances...
The Runaways Since it's based on Cherie Currie's memoir, this isn't so much a rock band bio, but a look into the world of Currie and The Runaways most famous lady -- Joan Jett. Nevertheless, it's a wildly fun flick fueled by catchy tunes like 'Cherry...

A fabulous story and a gem of an acting job by the lead actress. Excellent story with twists and turns.
One of the best film I've seen this year!!! Def. little scary, suspenseful, and devious :)
3* because I didn't like the development of the story; it made me realize that the director was trying to make me see his view of the story. Tha'ts... a no-no. Tell me a story but don't try to tell me what to see, conclude or think about it. I kept up with the 'movements' of the movie and I guess that's why I felt irritated. I spoke with some people afterwards and we all agreed that the movie had a lot of "folly" in it. That is, movies that have people doing wrong things for a "motive" --love or money or politics and power...will rest with the audience a lot better than stupid-looking people doing stupid-looking stuff for stupid-looking reasons. That makes everybody feel stupid, including the audience for coming to see such a thing. It was 3* good cinema that could have been improved by a much better script. --MO Full Review
