Eddie and the Cruisers
Eddie and the Cruisers, a major rock 'n' roll band in the early '60s, fell off the radar when singer Eddie vanished after a dispute over their experimental second album. And 20 years after, a television newswoman decides to investigate the legendary disappearance of leader Eddie Wilson who may still be alive, while searching for the missing tapes of the band's never-released album.

Pare lacks charisma as Eddie, but the Bruce Springsteen-like music was good enough to put the soundtrack album in the Top 40 charts.

Dated, rock-themed '80s tale has suicide, drugs, profanity.

An intriguing, if not completely successful, spin on the rock movie.

Low key and, despite the music, rather likeable.

I tend to doubt that you will ever see this movie double billed with Citizen Kane, but the two movies are structured pretty similarly.

Aside from Eddie And The Cruisers' funky structure, the music remains its chief selling point-though Cafferty's songs don't plausibly pass for early 1960s tunes.

Eddie and the Cruisers is all buildup and no payoff.
March 26, 2009
Eddie and the Cruisers is a mish-mash of a film, combining elements of the ongoing nostalgia for rock music of previous decades with an unworkable and laughable mystery plotline.

Eddie and the Cruisers is vivid, full of conviction and more than a little foolish at times.
