Great Balls of Fire

USA 1989, 103 minutes
Dir. Jim McBride
Rating: [M]
Genres: Drama / Pop/Rock

Topics: Biopic, Period 1950s.

Feat. Dennis Quaid, Winona Ryder, Alec Baldwin, Trey Wilson

Aroview: Brash, but seriously-intentioned biopic of early rock'n'roll legend Jerry Lee Lewis, who was equally famous for marrying his 13-year old cousin. Excellent musical sequences make up somewhat for Quaid's fatal miscasting and the sometimes affected vitality.

I find this review offensive! I don’t agree with this review. I agree with this review.
3 stars (Good Enough) Considering the difficulty of the role when acting out the musical performances, Quaid doesn't do too bad. Winona is a winner and needless to say so is the soundtrack. ~Tubbs
