It has some great actors and actresses, including Tom Cruise, Catherine Zeta Jones, Paul Giamatti, Alec Baldwin, Mary J. Blige, Russell Brand and Malin Akerman. I have to say Rock of Ages is, in my opinion, one of the best movies that are in theatres right now. Though people say it is a comedy, I would say it is a musical, because there are many songs during the movie.
During the '80s, Sherrie (Julianne Hough) comes from Oklahoma to Los Angeles, where she meets Drew (Diego Boneta). Drew helps her to get a job at The Bourbon Room, which is a very popular nightclub on the Sunset Strip, where Sherrie works as a waitress. Meanwhile, Stacee Jaxx (Tom Cruise), a famous rockstar, resignes from his band called Arsenal. Their last concert as a band is going to be at The Bourbon Room. But, there is no band or player that will sing in Arsenal's opening. Suddenly, Sherrie proposes Drew, and the manager of The Bourbon Room (Alec Baldwin) agrees. Sherrie and Drew were already a couple, since the first days Sherrie worked at the nightclub. At the big night, everybody is at the club, and a reporter from The Rolling Stones magazine (Malin Akerman) takes Stacee Jaxx an interview. After Drew's performance, Stacee's manager (Paul Giamatti) asks Drew to work for him, and, in the end, Drew broke up with Sherrie, and they both quit from The Bourbon Room. Drew is now working with Stacee's manager at his career as a pop star in a band called Z-Guyeezz, and Sherrie is forced to become a stripper. During the whole film, there is a group of women headed by the mayor's wife (Catherine Zeta Jones), who want to close The Bourbon Room, because rock 'n' roll has a bad influence on the kids and teenagers from L.A., but actually everything is personal, because, many years ago, young Stacee Jaxx and the mayor's wife were in love, but he broke up with her, and this is revealed at the end of the movie. After the last show at The Bourbon Room, Stacee's manager left with all the money, even if this wasn't the deal, and Stacee finds out, and he fires his manager. Stacee Jaxx is going to have another big show at The Bourbon Room, and in his opening will perform The Z-Guyeezz, but it seems nobody enjoys their music at the nightclub. After Drew's performance, Sherrie and Drew are again a couple. After the concert, Stacee Jaxx gives all the money to the manager of The Bourbon Room, since the club didn't have money anymore.
In the end of the movie, there is another concert, where Drew, Sherrie and Stacee Jaxx share the same stage, in the same time, and we can also see that the reporter from The Rolling Stones and Stacee Jaxx are a couple, and they are going to have a baby. Happy ending :)
So, this was the movie, I love it, and you should listen to all of the songs that were performed during the film, if you like rock 'n' roll, of course. I hope you enjoyed it and keep watching U.C.Me! Don't forget to subscribe. Bye, XOXO.
