RICKI AND THE FLASH

A musician who gave up everything for her dream of rock-and-roll stardom returns home, looking to make things right with her family. — IMDB

Meryl Streep and Kevin Kline team up in this feel good movie. The best thing about it is the music which includes Streep actually singing and playing the guitar in The Flash band. However, the script and characters are pretty superficial in this story. There are some occasional good one-liners. I wasn’t convinced by the depressed daughter who came across at times as over the top. If you are interested in seeing Streep in a very different role, then you might want to head to the cinema. Otherwise, wait for the DVD.
