Detroit Rock City Movie Reviews

as this movie proves, the ’70s will NEVER die

One of the great things about movies that look at times past is the way they poke fun at individuals who didn’t get into popular culture. In this case, four friends in 1970s Michigan worship KISS, but one’s mother is a fundamentalist Christian who believes that KISS stands for “Knights In Satan’s Service”.

In a way, “Detroit Rock City” is sort of an excuse to be crazy. Whether it’s the scene where the four friends hide out in the girls’ bathroom and listen to the girl in the neighboring stall, or the part where they finally arrive at KISS’s concert, this movie has something for everyone. Everyone who loves the ’70s, that is.

Always fun, occasionally KISSterical.

Four inseparable high-school pals and members of the KISS Army must overcome numerous obstacles so that they can ‘rock and roll all nite’ with their musical heroes in concert in Detroit (Rock City).

Late-’90s teen comedy Detroit Rock City is a bit like the band KISS itself: it’s not high-brow art, and there’s stuff that works and stuff that doesn’t, but in the end, the name of the game is pure entertainment and fun, and in that it succeeds. It might help if you’re a fan of the band and are familiar with the tunes that accompany the action, but even if that’s not the case, the film’s breezy nature, likeable characters, and easy-going ’70s vibe make it a perfect film to chug a few beers to (or some ‘cold gin’).

The film’s head-banging foursome are played by James DeBello, Giuseppe Andrews, Edward Furlong and Sam Huntington, who work brilliantly together, and they are given able support from two of my favourite actresses, Natasha Lyonne and Melanie Lynskey (as Christine and Beth – geddit?). Director Adam Rifkin directs with an energy and obvious enthusiasm for his subject matter, and in turn draws inspired performances from his young cast (most of whom weren’t even born in 1978, when this film is set).

The funny stuff isn’t all grade A material, but, just like KISS’s classic ’70s albums, it’s definitely more hit than miss, with some stone cold winners along the way (Furlong puking into the pitcher gets me every time). As a long time fan of KISS myself (1984-present day), I might be a bit biased, but I would say, so long as you don’t have ‘great expectations’, you won’t be disappointed.

Detroit Rock City ?…………. Awesome !!!

This movie was great,funny,cool,realistic and entertaining The Story of four teens who play in a KISS cover band who got tickets to go see KISS in Detroit, but a series of unfortunate events stop them from going to see the concert,and they don’t stop at nothing to get all the way to Detroit for the Show of their lives.

The Best thing about this movie is that the characters are believable, they are exactly what you would expect, and they act exactly like normal teenagers would in the late 70′, in most teen movies you see the usual cliché’s, but not here.

All in all this movie is very entertaining, you never get bored, and the movie really puts you in these guys shoes and feel just like they would in that type of situation.Plus the movie is filled with an awesome soundtrack, with bands like AC/DC, Van Halen and of course KISS who also appear in the film.

So my advice to you (if you like good ol Rock n’ Roll and Fun movies) is to rent Detroit Rock City invite some friends and Have a great Time.
