This is a really unique movie. Looking back on it, it feels like it was sloppy and disjointed, but somehow I think that might have been on purpose; this is the story of a rock star, after all, and despite its flaws this movie will have you laughing and having a great time all the way through.
The film takes a surprisingly fresh look at the sex, drugs and rock and roll theme, avoiding the common clichés and misconceptions and replacing them with actual human thoughts and emotions. Of course, all of this hinges on the acting, and thankfully Hill and Brand both deliver amazing performances, with P. Diddy delivering a surprising and memorable one as well. The movie undoubtedly delivers humour-wise as well, with some borderline genius moments.
In a sentence:
While the movie never really settles on any particular message, and never really knows where it's going, the acting and humour manage to transform that into a quality, which leaves us with one of the craziest and most enjoyable comedies thus far this summer.
