The Rocker Cert: 12A Runtime: 1 hour 42 mins Robert "Fish" Fishman is the extremely dedicated and astoundingly passionate drummer for the eighties hair band Vesuvius, who is living the rock n' roll dream until he is unceremoniously kicked out of the band. Twenty years after his rock star fantasies are destroyed, just when Fish has finally given up all hope, he hears that his nephew's high school rock band A.D.D. is looking for a new drummer. They reluctantly make him the newest member of the band, giving him a chance to reclaim the rock God throne he's always thought he deserved, and taking the young band along for the ride of their lives. UK release date: 17/10/2008 Starring: Rainn Wilson, Josh Gad, Christina Applegate Directed by: Peter Cattaneo trailer at www.showcasecinemas.co.uk/php-bin/frameme.php?page=/films/rocker.fhtmlWoody

I saw a trail for this before Mamma Mia! It looks good, and a lot more entertaining than the upcoming Brideshead Revisited remake and The Boy In The Striped Pyjamas (not a biopic of Steve Hackett but a history lesson for kids).

is this not a similar storyline to School Of Rock? Only instead of Jack Black's character playing guitar with a school band its a drummer. Haven't seen a trailer so maybe I'm a bit wide of the mark
