Can you be colorful?

I'm a sucker for movies with music. I'm a bigger sucker for movies with 80's music.
Make a movie about an glam-rock 80's band looking for a new lead singer and the story of this guy.....yeah....it's a good movie to me.
Wahlberg does a great job as the "hero" in the movie. You love his role and how decent of a guy he is. It twists in your stomach when he makes bad choices. You can't help but empathize at times. It's killing.
Aniston is a good side-kick in the film; brings a little innocence to the world of rock.
The message and story are very well done. Life can be one hell of a ride. But all in all you have to find out who you really are. Sometimes the roads traveled aren't always the best ones; but sometimes that's all you need to realize that you don't have to stay on the path...so you turn and walk on the grass.
