The first 30 minutes of this movie are great. Rick is cute and funny as his character is locked out of his dressing room and mobbed by adoring fans. The concert scenes are TERRIFIC and having seen Rick in concert many times I enjoyed them very much. Unfortunately, after the requisite "beefcake shot" of Rick, the plot of the movie slides downhill into Bad Soap Opera Land.
Rick CAN act and I have seen him give some amazing performances. That said, this movie doesn't show his skills in the best light. Mostly because the writing is HORRID but also because his co-star (Janet Eiber) is not much of an actress. Rick does his best, but he's left hanging by a bad script and a lame director.

I remember when this video came out on VHS in 1985 I rented it numerous times back then I couldn't afford to buy it. I never thought I would give this concert less than 5 stars but seeing him again in concert in 2002 has truly been an eye opening experience. I updated all my old tapes with CD's and have been looking for this particular DVD. I am glad that I do have this to add to my collection but I was dissapointed in the fact that he never even talked to all the screaming fans..he was more into putting on an excellent concert and it was too choregraphed Rick seems to be somewhere else. I know I am being bold in making these statements but he didnt seem to be enjoying the stage like he does now I just see such a HUGE difference in his performances now. He is so personable and he acts... More Info about this DVD Actor(s): Rick Springfield DVD Release Date: Released the 22 June 2004 Usually ships within 24 hours
