Tom Cruise hams it up as Stacee Jaxx in Rock of Ages. Warner Bros. Pictures

Hair of the dog By Roger Moore McClatchy-Tribune News Service

Most movie musicals, even in the age of Glee, still face that awkward moment when somebody — say her name is Sherrie Christian — bursts into “Motoring” by Night Ranger while aboard a Greyhound, and the rest of the bus bursts in to join her for the chorus. Audiences today titter at that. But you measure the movie by how quickly we get over it. Rock of Ages, the big-screen version of the jukebox musical set to ’80s “hair metal” anthems and ballads, never does. The all-star cast is game, but the filmmakers can’t stop winking and mocking the mockable music and the era long enough to let the picture, built around over-the-top

Rock of Ages Rated PG-13. 123 minutes. Opens Friday.

tunes by Foreigner, Bon Jovi, Journey and others, pay off. It’s enough to make you “stop believin’.” Tom Cruise, as burnt-out rocker Stacee Jaxx, will do his best Axl Rose impression — bare-chested belting, waving a mic stand bedecked in scarves — or Diego Boneta, aspiring metal singer, will tear into Foreigner’s “One Guitar,” or Alec Baldwin and Russell Brand and the rest of the cast blast “I Love Rock ’n’ Roll,” and director Alan Shankman

Filmmakers overindulge while poking fun at ‘Rock of Ages’ source material

(Hairspray) will go for some cheap laugh and utterly undercut the moment. Maybe the music, the fashion, the whole rapacious testosterone vibe of that spandex, eye-shadow, poodlehaired era is laughable. But it’s one thing to poke fun at something, quite another to attack it with utter contempt. Rock of Ages, which discards quite a bit of the book of the stage musical it’s based on, swirls around Jaxx, who staggers onstage for his farewell show at the Sunset Strip’s famed “Bourbon Room,” and prepares to launch a solo career. Sherrie, a new waitress and would-be singer (Julianne Hough), and bartender-guitarist Drew (Boneta) dream of living the rock-god life Stacee leads.

The Bourbon Room is under pressure from the mayor’s wife (Catherine Zeta-Jones), who pledges to “clean up Sunset Strip” and “take Satan off our streets.” She and her fellow Mothers Against Drunk Rockers then kick into a rowdy-raunchy rendition of “Hit Me With Your Best Shot.” Drew writes songs for Sherrie, Sherrie moons over Drew, but fame ruins romance in La La Land. “The spotlight doesn’t just light them up. It makes us disappear,” another waitress warns Sherrie. Thus, does Miss Innocent from Oklahoma wind up in a strip club run by Mary J. Blige, who delivers what passes for a show-stopper here — “Any Way You Want it,” with a choreographed crew of very ath-

letic pole dancers behind her. You will be amazed at the actors who take on singing, often for the first time onscreen (Baldwin, Malin Akerman as a sexy Rolling Stone reporter, Paul Giamatti as Stacee’s sleazy manager) and don’t embarrass themselves. Cruise, in particular, is a demented delight to watch, all jewel-encrusted dragon’s head codpiece, buttless chaps and self-serious drunken swagger. But the songs, with a few exceptions, lack the urgency of the original renditions. The leads (Hough and Boneta) are so bland and thin-voiced that they seem out of step with 1987. Seriously, Brother Shankman, what’s the point of making “I Love Rock ’n’ Roll: The Musical,” if you don’t?


COVER STORY

Child’s play Musical ‘Miss Nelson’ is a date for all ages By Lucinda Breeding Features Editor

M

iss Nelson Is Missing is tailormade for a child’s amusement. The musical has bright, bouncy songs, huge characters and a lot of action. Cristin Thomas ia back at the helm of the third summer of Texas Woman’s University’s theater for children and young people. Thomas and TWU have a simple goal: produce lively theater for a young audience. Miss Nelson is based on the 1984 illustrated children’s book by Harry Allard and James Marshall. The story is about a class full of awful kids. Spitballs compete for face-space with paper airplanes. The concept of an “inside voice” is nonexistent. And authority? The pupils in Miss Nelson’s class recognize none. The harangued teacher can either throw in the towel, or roll up her sleeves. “This year is our first year to do a musical,” said Thomas, who came to TWU for summers only with a resume heavy on successful children’s theater. “We want it to be good educationally for our students, and we want it to be a professional show for our audience.” Thomas said she and the university’s theater program chairwoman, Sharon Benge, read a host of plays for young audiences when scheduling the summer class. Miss Nelson had the right combination of action, music and narrative. The musical is surprisingly funny — it won’t punish adults for the sake of making kids squeal. “I loved this book. I always thought the idea that your teacher might dress up to scare you to make you behave is kind of See NELSON on 10

ROLL CALL: MISS NELSON IS MISSING ADDY, the aspiring aviator Played by: TWU graduate student Brett Schmidt Gets detention for: throwing paper airplanes About her role: “I am obsessed with airplanes,” Schmidt said. “That’s why I have the goggles. My idol is Amelia Earhart.”

ALLISON, the devious debutante Played by: TWU freshman Kristi Smith Stealth move: Using her jump-rope as a lasso About her role: “She’s the one who is really good — when the teacher is looking,” Smith said. “But when Miss Nelson isn’t looking, some violent tendencies come out. But she wants to be president one day.”

BETHANY, blower of spit wads Played by: TWU senior Cassie Henderson Weapon of choice: Plastic straw, loose leaf paper About her role: “Blowing spit wads is something I never would have done when I was a kid,” Henderson said. “But this girl’s a tomboy. She spends a lot of time on top of desks.”

CHERYL, the special one Played by: TWU student Averie Bell Tactical move: hiding in plain sight About her role: “Out of all the kids, Cheryl is the least aware that she’s being bad,” said Bell. “I’m like the big awkward one in the class. Oh, and she also is very into cute things, like pandas, and a lucky boy in the audience.”

MISS NELSON, the tortured teacher Played by: TWU student Emily Johns Strategy: a thick accent and an imposing alias — Viola Swamp About her role: “She loves the children individually, but when you put them all together, they feed off of each other. She wants to be a good teacher, but when they get together, she’s overwhelmed,” Johns said.

From Page 9

THE PRINCIPAL Played by: TWU graduate student Gerald Young Coping mechanisms: pet goldfish, ballpoint pen collection About his role: “OCD isn’t the right term for the principal,” Young said. “He’s got some interesting obsessions. I don’t think he gets many opportunities to share, and that’s why he gets carried away.”

Nelson funny,” Thomas said. “We made a few changes. The musical was originally written for two boys and two girls in Miss Nelson’s rambunctious class. “We made this an all-girl school,” Thomas said recently. “So many people have wanted to be involved that we haven’t even had a full [technical] rehearsal yet, but we’re ahead of schedule.” The set — often one of the last elements to be finished — is a feast for young eyes. There is a green and white parlorstyle floor, and bright yellow classroom walls embellished with light and dark blue stripes. Lunchboxes and backpacks are stuffed into a wall of bright orange cubby boxes. The elementary school girls wear uniforms that would be the envy of hipsters everywhere, too. Colorful polo shirts are tucked haphazardly into school uniform skirts — over shorts — and each girl wears tube socks that correspond to the bright Converse tennis shoes. Thomas said Miss Nelson is suitable for children in first through fourth grade. “I don’t tell parents not to bring younger kids than that,” she said. “Some kids can sit through a show like this by the time they’re 3 years old. My kids have been in the theater audience ever since they were wee bitty.” The musical will be about one hour long with no intermission, Thomas said. Most of

POPS HANSON, the janitor Played by: TWU student Aaron Cassidy Field position: scooper, sweeper and wiper About his role: “He likes the students who clean their desks,” Cassidy said. “Yeah. No one in this class does that.”

enton Community Theatre continues its run of All My Sons by Arthur Miller this weekend. Miller’s drama is based on the true story of a businessman, Joe Keller, who made a decision during World War II that he believed was essential for the success of his business and security of his family.

munity Theatre, directs. The cast features John Rodgers, Kenny Fudge, Travis Barth, Kerri Peters and Mike Strecher — along with some talented newcomers.

While children enjoy the story of bad kids learning to respect school and teachers, Thomas said TWU students are getting a great education. Thomas is quick to point out that young audiences neither clap politely for poor performances nor hold back. “If you don’t do what you’re

supposed to do onstage, kids will not stay with you,” she said. “They’ll bust out with ‘Mom? I’m hungry, can we go?’ And even when they do enjoy it, they’ll let you know when they see your tricks. I’m betting there will be a few kids who let everyone know, ‘Hey, I see Miss Nelson!’” Performing for the younger audience serves as good training for the cast and crew. “We want to make sure we’re

The Avengers (###) Superheroes from Marvel Comics unite to face an otherworldly foe (Tom Hiddleston) in this assembling of franchise warriors: Iron Man (Robert Downey Jr.), Thor (Chris Hemsworth), the Hulk (Mark Ruffalo), Hawkeye (Jeremy Renner), Captain America (Chris Evans) and the Black Widow (Scarlett Johansson). Joss Whedon wrote and directed, delivering a satisfying, if exhausting, rendition of good versus evil. Rated PG-13, 142 minutes. — Boo Allen Battleship (###) This is big, dumb fun that knows it’s big, dumb fun and enthusiastically embraces its big, dumb fun nature. Alex Hopper (Taylor Kitsch) is a lieutenant on one naval destroyer while his older brother, Stone (Alexander Skarsgard), is the commanding officer of another. Both answer to Adm. Shane (a withering, well-cast Liam Neeson). They’re all taking part in some international war games off the Hawaiian coast when a satellite signal provokes some angry extraterrestrials. Rated PG-13, 131 minutes. — The Associated Press Bernie (##1/2) Jack Black is the picture of silliness in this whimsical, fact-based film set in Carthage. He plays a good-natured, well-loved funeral home employee who befriends a local widow (Shirley MacLaine) known for her cruelty and stinginess. But with Bernie, she blossoms, taking him on trips and spending money freely. That is, until she turns up dead. Matthew McConaughey plays the eventual prosecutor. Directed by Richard Linklater.

Rated PG13, 122 minutes. — LAT Dark Shadows (#) Tim Burton and Johnny Depp are snuggled warmly in their comfort zone in this chilly horror-comedy, their eighth collaboration as director and star, respectively, and their weakest by far. Barnabas Collins (Depp), a vampire who’s been buried alive for nearly two centuries, suddenly finds himself back in his insular Maine hometown in 1972. By the time Burton finally puts his visual effects skills to their best use, in a climactic showdown between Barnabas and the witch who cursed him (Eva Green), it’s too late. With Michelle Pfeiffer, Helena Bonham Carter and Jackie Earle Haley. Rated PG, 116 minutes. — AP The Dictator (###) Sacha Baron Cohen stars as the title character, Adm. Gen. Aladeen, the ruler of the fictitious oil-rich African country Wadiya. He comes to America, loses his trademark beard, lands with a Brooklyn feminist (Anna Faris), and then tries to win his country back as well as his new girlfriend. Over-thetop silliness filled with insults and fish-out-of-water humor provide plenty of laughs, however squirm-inducing.

The result: A cute story about zoo animals running off to join the circus becomes overwhelmed by a blur of color and animated acrobatics. Rated PG, 92 minutes. — AP Men in Black 3 (###) Josh Brolin impersonating the young Tommy Lee Jones is worth the price of admission to Men in Black 3. Dry, drawling, deadpan — he nails the flinty Texan in this sentimental sequel to the scifi comedies about secret agents in black suits who save the world from

aliens. An alien serial killer (Jemaine Clement) has traveled back in time to save the arm that Agent K shot off in 1969, and Agent J (Will Smith) must go back and save his future partner. If director Barry Sonnenfeld has lost his fastball, Smith has lost a step or two running the bases. Rated PG-13, 105 minutes. — McClatchy-Tribune News Service Prometheus (####) Director Ridley Scott delivers a suspenseful prequel to his 1979 classic Alien. The similar plot sees a spaceship venturing into outer space only to find trouble. Scott combines technical improvements with good storytelling while also adding several jolts of ter-

Rated R, 124 minutes. — B.A. Snow White & the Huntsman (###1/2) Director Rupert Sanders’ revisionist take on the classic Brothers Grimm fable upends expectations of traditional gender roles while simultaneously embracing what a fairy tale should be. It’s dark and dangerous, vicious and violent. And yet the performances — notably from Kristen Stewart as the title character — don’t always live up to the film's visionary promise.
