ok, so you see, ihave a very wide range of music here, from rock to R&B, to country, to pop to rap, ilike all kinds of music ;)
so now, i'm gonna give my critique or review or just basically, my opinion of the movie about "The Runaways" :)
so if you know anything about The Runaways, they were the first All-Girl rock & roll band. it launched the career of Joan Jett, who later became famous for her band "Joan Jett & The Blackhearts", who were famous for their cover of "I Love Rock & Roll", which happens to be, if iwere to ever do karaoke, the one song that iwould have to do!!! lol..anyways, the movie is based on Cherie Currie's memoir "Neon Angel: A Memoir of a Runaway"...Cherie Currie was the band's lead singer from late 1975 to mid-summer of 1977...she joined the band when she was 15, and left before she was 18...anyways, so enough with this playful banter of giving information, on with my review!!!
so ireally enjoyed the movie...Dakota Fanning's portrayal of Cherie Currie was amazing..her performance is transitioning her into bigger, more mature roles. ithink that now she'll be given more adult roles, because ithink that the role of Cherie was a big step for her, and it was her chance to show what she could do, and she pulled it off perfectly.
ialso loved Kristen Stewart as Joan Jett. ididnt really know much about Joan Jett, other than her band, but my cousin, Jamie, told me about her and The Runaways, and ijust love the idea of an All Girl Band during the time that women weren't really able to branch out of the ordinary..this band paved the way for other girl bands...without their influence, you wouldnt have bands like The Donnas, The Gossip, or any other girl groups...but anyways, thats some serious Girl Power
the movie to me, progressed very quickly, it didnt seem like it was 106 minutes, or however long it is...the movie was directed by a woman, so that is some serious GIRL POWER!!! 5 stars for that :) ialso loved how both Joan Jett and Cherie Currie were on the set of the film, and when you compare side by side, Kristen looks soo much like Joan Jett!!! WOAHH ihad to take a double take...anyways, nevertheless, it was a great movie, and now ireally wanna read Cherie's memoir
well, thats all for now, i'll right back soon, byee :)
xoxo, R<3
