If you’ve ever indulged a rock & roll fantasy, Rock Star will give you the vicarious thrill of seeing that fantasy come to life. That’s what happens when talented tribute-band singer Chris Cole (Mark Wahlberg) is tapped to replace his idol as frontman for 1980s metal gods Steel Dragon. Chris becomes the groupie-laden “Izzy,” his manager girlfriend (Jennifer Aniston) grows weary of sex ‘n’ drugs on tour, and Rock Star plays out its utterly conventional plot line. Despite the casting of real rockers to support Wahlberg’s underrated performance (nicely matched by Aniston and Timothy Spall as Steel Dragon’s road manager), his character is too rigidly written to follow an obligatory rise and fall, and even its basis in fact (inspired by Tim “Ripper” Owens’s recruitment into Judas Priest) can’t conceal the movie’s predictable formula. As a cautionary tale it’s routine, but as a leather-pants love story, Rock Star’s got enough good karma to keep its dream alive. –Jeff Shannon
