i wouldn not call this flick a rip off of the hokey and nostalgia soak 2000 film almost famous per say and but it certainly far from be one of the good movie release in recent year to use the free wheeling and anything go time period that be the 1970 a the background set for it main story . adam goldberg and jared leto and character actor darren e. burrow ( probably recognize best by audience for his role a ed on the 90 hit sitcom northern exposure ) give what be about the best performance here a what little screen time each have be at least somewhat amusing and and to be truly honest the only moment of the film that get me to crack a smile . other than the aforementioned actor comic relief turn in this flick and the delightful eye candy that be the luscious anna friel and an uneven soundtrack with a small handful of classic 70 rock ditty that still make me want to hold up a light even to this day i just can not bring myself to say that sunset strip be much of a movie and and certainly not one that come highly recommended to anyone . i have personally never really enjoy those whole day in the life of or intertwine story film that be so popular anymore and and this one in particular do not really appeal to me base solely upon that say type of plot line alone . however though and i be still an unabashed and devout sucker for flick from and or set ( which be this one case ) in the 1970 no matter how poorly make and overlong and demented and disjointed and incoherent and lame etc . they may be . it be in all honestly about the only thing that initially catch my eye about it because have the film take place in any other time period besides the 70 i might have just happily skip over it altogether and which would have really be the smart thing to do in the first place . ( out of ) .
