Review of Light of Day

Light of Day (1987)
2/10
No light at the end of this tunnel

"Light of Day", written and directed by Paul Schrader, is a very lame attempt at a meaningful and 'cool' rock and roll drama. Schrader tries to make his audience 'roll with the punches and rock with your heart' but fails to do either. The drama is both badly handled - by cast and crew alike - and uninteresting.

The movie starred the then hugely popular Michael J. Fox and rocker Joan Jett as brother and sister. Gena Rowlands played their mom. The music, written by Bruce Springsteen surprisingly, is quite average.

I had to force myself to sit through this, which only left me with a feeling of boredom.
