#219 - Bigger, Stronger, Faster*

Directed by Chris Bell
2008 Documentary
Rated PG-13

****

#218 - The Rocker

Directed by Peter Cattaneo
2008 Comedy
Rated PG-13

**

A big disappointment. With the talent of the cast this should've been much better. Somehow Wilson sadly manages to be the worst thing in it. Newcomer Josh Gad and SNL's Jason Sudekis are the best here, and the rest of the cast is bad (Teddy Geiger) to good (everyone else). Also, be on the lookout for every music movie cliche ever used.
