Editorial Reviews:
|
When a four-girl, one-guy rock group called The Mystery gets its first gig at a club, it's not just a chance to perform, it's also an opportunity to get out of the inner city¿and see what life is all about. Fresh out of high school, the group spends the summer playing a club in an exclusive beach resort. There they find romance, adventure and, for the lead singer Jennie Lee (Bateman), a dilemma: to pursue her budding career or return to school. Liam Neeson and Julia Roberts co-star.

Customer Rating: 
Summary: Great Ultrastereo musical score
Comment: Satisfaction's ensemble of characters are always fun to watch again. Justine Bateman with that sexy deep voice, Brita Phillips as the junkie the band members must rescue, Trini Alvarado as the tough car thief Mooch, Julia Roberts as a sweet big sister type with a steady jealous boyfriend, and Liam Neeson as the older alcoholic songwriter in need of a comeback. But no one mentions where the story is set or why Mooch is never punished for stealing the band's van from a gangster. The musical score must be good because it was written by Michel Columber who also wrote Purple Rain for Prince, but enhanced sound on video also seems to be out of sync during a few songs.

Summary: Once in a While a Bit of Nostalgia Suits the Palate
Comment: SATISFACTION is not a great movie by any shakes, but taken for what it was meant to be - a slightly naive tale of a girls' band that has a summer of adventure, love and opportunity for the big time nut opts instead to become just a group of life-long friends - it is a well done bit of pastiche. Thanks to the simple script by Charles Purpura and to the sensitive direction of Joan Freeman the little story works well.
The interesting aspect of the film is the cast. The band consists of leader Justine Bateman with Trini Alvarado, Britta Phillips, Scott Coffey as the token male, Deborah Harry and yes, the movie debut of Julia Roberts! Liam Neeson serves as the love interest for Justine Bateman's character and Michael DeLorenzo has a small part, too. The music is fun and the cast commits to the idea of the film well. Strange to see a film from 1988 with the established stars disappearing and the 'newcomers' taking flight. Grady Harp, December 06

Summary: love 80's movies
Comment: i am a big fan of the 80's movie even though most are a bit corny. And the same goes for this one at times but i love it. You get to see Julia Roberts and a younger Liam Neeson which is great. Also has a pretty good sound track and Justine Bateman does a good job of lip-syncing. Save when it looks as if she is gonna eat the mic. Over all is a good movie. Hope this review helped. Enjoy the movie.
