Synopsis

Spoiler shield

Pinnacle records has the perfect plan to get their sinking company back on track: a comeback concert in LA featuring Aldous Snow, a fading rockstar who has dropped off the radar in recent years. Record company intern Aaron Green is faced with the monumental task of bringing his idol, out of control rock star Aldous Snow, back to LA for his comeback show.

“Aaron Green has 72 hours to get a rock star from London to L.A. Pray for him.”

Russell Brand gives a good performance. Everything else is quite forgettable.

Funny movie but very irritating at the Sametime. He's trying to get him to the greek but all he wants to do is party. They both get pretty messed up throughout the movie.
