Rock of Ages – Starring Julianne Hough, Diego Boneta, and Tom Cruise. Directed by Adam Shankman. Rated M. By Jess Lomas.

Warning sexy teenagers! Dancing kills! So says the trailer for Craig Brewer’s Footloose. A remake of the 1984 film of the same name, it stars Kenny Wormald and Julianne Hough as kids that love to dance … even if it could cost them … their lives. Or something. You know what this is. Hey, it […]
