The good: I'll disagree with those who have complained about the visuals in the movie. With high definition close ups and the panning flying view's I'd actually call this movie eye candy.
And of course the music was good, which is why were were all watching this movie to begin with.
The bad: All these reviews talk about how hard the story is too follow. This isn't because there are so many moving parts, there's not, it's because the movie is a collection of scenes thrown together that only occasionally have anything to do with the plot. The plot itself is mostly a collection of clichés. Son seeking the approval of his father, who is a brute. Daughter hates her father because he's distant.
The plot really does not come from the scenes themselves. Instead you get what's going on because people tell you whats going on. You understand that his daughter hates him because she says she hates him. Even little things are like this, for example you understand that the former lead singer of his band is feisty because she tells you so, not because you see her acting feisty.
In all the story was very clunky and the characters VERY 1 dimensional.
score 3/10
