Perhaps best known for its faux Springsteen soundtrack, the 1983 Eddie and the Cruisers is a rock lover's fantasy run wild. The story finds a reporter (Ellen Barkin) tracking down rumors of an unreleased album by a band whose charismatic leader (Michael Paré) allegedly died years before. As she approaches surviving members--who have since gone on to other things--she gets different points of view on Eddie's life and artistic drive, and the mystery about that album deepens. The trouble with the film is simple: it's impossible to accept. Michael Paré is far from suitable to play a Jersey shore rocker with thematic pretensions toward Rimbaud that go back to the '60s, and the soundtrack by John Cafferty sounds like a hack's rendition of E Street Band magic. An all-around embarrassment. --Tom Keogh

Though I was a teen in the 80s, I never saw Eddie and the Cruisers until recently. I enjoyed John Cafferty's hit songs from the soundtrack years ago and wanted to like the movie.

The story is quite unbelievable, particularly toward the end when a series of events revolves around main characters re-visiting a fantastical junkyard that has remained totally undisturbed for decades. ...

"Eddie and the Cruisers" isn't a lost masterpiece, but it's a solid, thoughtful, enjoyable film about one of the great driving narratives of Western culture: The Artist Ahead Of His (or Her) Time, doomed to be ignored during life, then rediscovered after death. From William Blake to Nick Drake, we've seen this story repeated over & over ... and we'll see it many times again.
Yes, there's a touch of fantasy & wish fulfillment here -- but we're not dealing with a gritty, utterly realistic ... Read More

Who is Tom Keogh and why does Amazon pay him? Eddie and the Cruisers is about invention and striving for excellence. It is about two great minds, Frank and Eddie, coming together to create something new. Eddie sees in Frank a great songwriter and uses his (Eddie's) leadership ability to put the words to music just right. This is a movie about ideas, values and friendship working toward a common goal. Cross your fingers and say 'words and music'. Then sit back and enjoy this wonderful movie.
