Pass. so now cigar spice is a film reviewer. i have never seen flashdance so unable to comment (isn't that the one with the woman doing the gymnastics? i have seen that scene. there are worse films). any film with nearly two dozen bruce songs has the oscars wrapped up! after the sad attempt at demeaning anything bruce, i thought i should check out what the reviews did say. while that might not have the insight of cigar spice, they seemed to like it - "a delirious and romantic rock ‘n’ roll parable. I dare say it’s a more incandescent ode to the life force of pop music than any film ever adapted". that will do me. can't wait!! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

" a self indulgent romantic romp aimed at aging white men clinging to 1980" based on your prediction of monte Cs being decent smokes, looks like this film should soon knock Citizen Kane from its perch.

Webbo Posted June 13, 2019 Share Posted June 13, 2019 Absolute worse case its 2 hours listening to Bruce (which is always one of the best ways to spend 2 hours). Any interesting story-line, dialogue or cinematography is simply an added bonus. It's a no lose Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IanMcLean68 Posted June 13, 2019 Share Posted June 13, 2019 To be honest Ken, until the first mention of Bruce at 37 seconds into the trailer, I thought you might have lost your mind! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

" a self indulgent romantic romp aimed at aging white men clinging to 1980" Hey, I resemble that remark! What's wrong with being an ageing white man clinging to 1980??? I am oppressed (and depressed) enough, I deserve some self-indulgence! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BoliDan Posted June 14, 2019 Share Posted June 14, 2019 Oz movie about the Boss!!! Nevermind, not once have I understood the infatuation. Now if it was guns n rose's with thier deep philosophical and cerebral music, different story. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SirVantes Posted June 14, 2019 Share Posted June 14, 2019 Smart move to set the film in 1987. Any later and the poor kid would have had to suffer the fallow period of Lucky Town/Human Touch and the baffling Ghost of Tom Joad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SenorPerfecto Posted June 14, 2019 Share Posted June 14, 2019 I'll pass on The Boss. BUT if you want to see a great new coming of age film, it's hard to beat BOOKSMART. Tremendous soundtrack as well. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

clutch5150 Posted June 15, 2019 Share Posted June 15, 2019 Love the music of the Boss, probably the hardest workers on stage and plays the longest...Just wish he'd stop the political speeches at a "concert". I pay hard earned money to see him perform his music, not the political dance. ? "Shoot pool Fast Eddie". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
