One of the most critically lambasted and dumped-on films of 2012 comes to Blu-Ray with an extended edition (not always a good thing) and after sitting through this choreographed lovefest to big-haired 1980s rock music I have come to one conclusion. Rock of Ages - I liked it. I may be in the minority, but damn it I liked it.
Say it loud, say it proud: recommended.

I long for the days of Matthew McConaughey in movies other than cheesy romantic comedies, but here's hoping this one is at least slightly better than most.

From "Sex in the City" catchphrase to New York Times bestseller to a theater near you to DVD. A consideration.

Sure, the original was a great, original, semi-cult classic, but this direct-to-video effort just oozes failure.
