Admit One 6/15

Rock of Ages

Starring: Tom Cruise, Alec Baldwin, Julianne Hough, Malin Akerman, Diego Boneta, Paul Giamatti, Catherine Zeta Jones, Russell Brand

Directed by: Adam Shankman

Plot: A couple of young singers meet at an ailing rock and roll club that is danger of being shut down by a crazed parents group and the only thing that can save the club is rock legend, Stacee Jax.

Rotten Tomatoes Freshness: 42%

Critic Consensus: “Its exuberant silliness is almost enough to make up for its utter inconsequentiality, but Rock of Ages is ultimately too bland and overlong to justify its trip to the big screen”

That’s My Boy

Starring: Adam Sandler, Andy Samberg, Leighton Meester, Vanilla Ice, James Caan, Milo Ventimiglia

Directed by: Sean Anders, John Morris

Plot: On the verge of his wedding, straight laced Todd sees the unwelcome return of his party animal father, Donny.

RT Freshness: 20%

Critic Consensus: “While it does represent a new foray into raunch for the normally PG-13 Sandler, That’s My Boy finds him repeating himself to diminishing effect – and dragging Andy Samberg down with him”
