This movie should be great, the main story itself is wonderful and very nostalgic. However, there isn't one interesting shot in the whole movie and the director refuses to say something interesting, instead opting for the sacharine hollywood comedy-romance which is a failure nonetheless. The viewer doesn't care about any of the characters, especially not Kate Hudson, who provides the side story. With such great music to work with, the director instead opts to show us endless concert footage of a fictitious 60s band fronted by Jason Lee. What a dumb idea. The movie takes about an hour to tie up all the idiotic and unneccesary side stories since, you know, there aren't unhappy endings or chaos in real life, especially not in rock and roll. This movie is ruined by bad direction, there is not one interesting shot in the whole thing. Don't be fooled by your nostalgic sentiment to see it, this movie is awful!
