Walk Hard: The Dewey Cox Story
It’s “Walk the Line” meets “Ray” meets “SuperBad” in Judd Apatow’s parody of musical biopics. Fictitious legendary musician, Dewey Cox (John C. Reilly) takes us on a magical musical history ride through the highs and lows of his lengthy singing career. Be there when Dewey meets the Beatles, Elvis, and Buddy Holly. Listen to the lyrics as Dewey captures the sounds of the times. Poor Dewey gets hooked on just about every drug on earth. Keep your eyes peeled for cameos galore. Expect the unexpected. Apatow is very clever at times. This film is funny, but not his best work. This one is rated “R” for language, drugs, sexual content, and nudity (full frontal, male and female, ew). If you stay through the end of the credits, you’ll get a glimpse of the “real” Dewey Cox.
Alien gives it 2 ½ “Let’s Duet” stars out of 4.
