Purple Rain (1984)
8/10
"I'm gonna make you luuuuuv me!!"

Purple Rain is a musical drama set in the mid-eighties Minneapolis club scene. Prince stars as "The Kid", a talented musician who has problems on and off the stage. Morris Day is wonderful in his role and steals many of the scenes in the movie. The acting overall is something left to be desired but the musical numbers make up for it. The story is fast-paced and takes your mind of the terrible acting. This is a good rainy-Saturday flick to pop in the DVD player. It made my collection and has good replay value. I give it an 8/10 just because I'm a Prince fan and my Pops wouldn't let me see this film when I was 10.

Peace
