8/10
This Film bordered on ridiculous, crossed that border, invaded ridiculous, installed a new government in ridiculous and founded a whole new level of ridiculous.
On one level this film has more cheap jokes per foot of film then many others, but on a whole other level this film is a brilliant parody of the trend of biographic rock star films like I walk the line, the doors etc.
The various parodies on Elvis, the Beatles, buddy holly etc are absolutely brilliant, but the Beatles scene is my favorite by far.
The cast is awesome, the puns are awesome and this film has a million laughs a minute on offer.
Walk Hard, is a must see! Now please excuse me while I go rip my sink off the wall.
The Plot:
The up-and-down-and-up-again story of musician Dewey Cox, whose songs would change a nation. On his rock 'n roll spiral, Cox sleeps with 411 women, marries three times, has 22 kids and 14 step-kids, stars in his own 70s TV show, collects friends ranging from Elvis to the Beatles to a chimp, and gets addicted to - and then kicks - every drug known to man; but despite it all, Cox grows into a national icon and eventually earns the love of a good woman - longtime backup singer Darlene.
