    Renée Zellweger stars in this approximate remake of a 1956 rock & roll comedy that featured Fats Domino and Joe Turner in concert, and starred Mike Connors, Sterling Holloway, and Margaret Dumont in a story about killjoy adults trying to ban a teen-dance television show. Zellweger's 1994 update, made as part of Showtime Cable's Rebel Highway series, is similarly set during rock's late-'50s primordial beginnings and costars Nora Dunn, Mary Woronov, and P.J. Soles as uptight citizens putting the squeeze on a dance show hosted by a chipper hipster (Howie Mandel). Director Allan Arkush (Rock 'n' Roll High School) brings his arch touch to this silly but endearing tale (with a big boost from former Warhol mainstay Woronov), while America's sweetheart, Zellweger, literally throws herself into the high-octane part of a wannabe singer-songwriter relentlessly wooed by a bad-boy biker (nice work by musician John Doe). The original tunes could be better, but a subplot involving the uphill aspirations of an African American girl group (led by Latanyia Baldwin) in a racist entertainment industry allows for some vibrant doo-wop performances. --Tom Keogh

    2 out of 5 stars Renee Zellwegger probably wants to forget this..........2004-09-21

    From Renee Zellwegger's God-awful dubbing to the acting by the rest of the cast to the fact they put her teenage character up against some old ugly guy...you will hate this movie each second you co-exist with it.

    I remember I saw this before I watched "A Knight's Tale" some years ago. My dad and younger sister still joke to this day about how ironic that a movie set in the Middle Ages had a better rock soundtrack than a movie actually about rock.

    4 out of 5 stars Definitely worth a look.......2003-07-24

    Although not many people have seen this it's definitely worth a look. Renee Zellweger is very convincing as a piano playin rocker n the music is great, featuring stuff from Little Richard and Eddie Cochran. The next time you pass Blockbusters it's worth going in and lookin for this, you wont be disappointed.

    5 out of 5 stars Shake baby Shake!.......2002-08-22

    This movie really is good! There should of been a sequal to this. The characters were really good. The story is based sort of off the movies Hairspray and Grease. The rock tv show, the african americans, and the rock n roll are the heart of this movie! Your minutes wont be wasted. Short movie though.

    4 out of 5 stars Fun little movie.......2002-08-22

    Once in a while someone manages to get a handle on the spirit of the early rock 'n' roll movies of the '50s. And, to his credit, director Allan Arkush has done it twice; first with "Rock 'n' Roll High School" - quite probably the greatest rock 'n' roll movie ever made - and again fifteen years later with "Shake, Rattle, and Rock." Is it great art? Naw, but it's fun. Be sure to watch for original "Rock 'n' Roll High School" stars Mary Woronov, P.J. Soles, and Dey Young playing their "RnRHS" characters' mothers.

    3 out of 5 stars Enjoyable if you liked Rock 'n Roll High School..........2002-02-01

    Endearingly silly movie that continues the theme and fantasies of Rock 'n Roll High School (same director), with some great tunes. Subplot of a group of black singers gives the movie most of its heart, though the turn at the end is joltingly serious and out of tune with the rest of the movie. Great to see the stars of Rock 'n Roll High School who played the rebelling, rocking teenagers in that movie (PJ Soles, Dey Young) joining Mary Woronov in this one in her on-screen movie objective of shutting down big, bad Rock & Roll.
