I had never seen an IMAX movie before I saw this, so naturally I was excited to see it, unaware of the 40 minutes of torture awaiting me.
This film has the dumbest plot in history. An untalented rock star (Jasper Steverlinck - Who? Exactly.) returns to his mom's haunted castle where he encounters the devil (Harry Shearer), who is going by the name of Mr. D (*cringe*) and is forcing rock stars to work for him, or else he kills themwith guilotines and crap. "Mr. D" also killed Jaspy's mom (who is equally untalented in music as her son) and is now trying to get Jasper to work for him (God only knows what Mr. D sees in this hack). We're forced to watch this cringefest and listen to the worst music ever for a slow and painful 40 minutes. We hear the main characters song (which seems to be the only song he knows) like 5 times.
Seeing this was the first time I've ever wanted to walk out of a movie, but the IMAX had us in locked seats like on a roller coaster (not sure if that's how all IMAX movies are?). It made me feel like Alex in A Clockwork Orange. Your humble commenter was boo-hoo-hoo-ing for the credits to roll. Of course, wants they came along, we got to hear Japser's song all the way through again. :(
0/10 - AVOID AT ALL COSTS
