MaestroReviews

Deb and I are artists, painters actually. We go see films as often as once a week. That's right, we go to the theater and sit in a dark room with strangers to see movies. We rarely rent. We like "little" movies, foreign and documentary films. We try to stay away from mainstream and blockbusters whenever possible, but a couple sneak in each year. We seek out the obscure. We try to avoid violent movies, and that really limits our choices, most film makers seem to think violence makes a story interesting.
I try not to give anything away in the reviews, but offer an honest reaction.
We rate them 1~10, 10 being highest.

Not Fade Away

Deb 7     Me 6

This was a pretty authentic look at the formation and evolution of a garage band with big aspirations. The band shares the fate of most and this is a very good interpretation or representation of how it all happens in the various personalities that make up a band. Major credit goes to understanding the dynamics and putting them on screen in a way we can empathize with, it just wasn't a lot to watch. Could be a good TV movie.
