Goldirocks
Wannabe rock star Goldi lands in a house of three musicians, one too hot, one too cold, and a third who seems just right. They let her sing with their band, and she romances them one at a time, thinking she's found her new home. But when she unleashes her own songs on the guys, they cut her out of their scene, forcing her to discover that real success means becoming your own rock and roll hero.

That was an excellent one.
Highly Overrated But Still Good
By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.
Through painfully honest and emotional moments, the movie becomes irresistibly relatable
okay, so the script is terrible and the conversation is very unrealistic in parts. okay, some of the supporting characters are disappointing, if not embarrassing. it happens.you have to give credit to the director for what she was going for. and you have to give credit to the main actors, Sasha Ormond specifically. she managed to take a dismal script and make it amusing. and she is an absolute pleasure to watch.if you can shake off the crappy parts, this film actually has a great insight into the Toronto music scene (at least part of it).i would recommend it to anyone. it's typical of Canadian indie film in that there are pieces lacking... but it's up there with the good ones.
This film contained an interesting outlook on the harshness of the rock and roll business. It features a large variety of artists with varying degrees of exposure. The story line is weak at times, but the point gets across very effectively. I think this movie set could have been located anywhere, such as New York, Chicago, L.A. etc. and the bands would have faced the same challenges. The fact that it was filmed in Toronto makes it more palatable, because I am Canadian. The main actor/singer Shasa Ormond (Goldi) has potential both as an actor and singer. Hopefully we will be seeing more of her talents in the near future. It was a fun movie to watch and I am looking forward to the release of the DVD.
Are you for real?Goldirocks is, without a doubt, a dismal failure as entertainment.There is nothing accurate or realistic about it. And it has no value as far as I can see. It would take way more than forty bands to save this one. More than four hundred.If the makers of this movie are actually part of the Toronto music scene, which I seriously doubt, then they are part of some warped corner of it where bands like Sticky Rice, Cheerleader and Wayne Omaha are cool. The exact opposite of reality.As for the movie; the acting is atrocious, the dialogue has never been spoken by anyone in history other than the actors, the camera work and direction are totally hopeless. The main character is completely unlikable, for crying out loud! Not a single redeeming quality! Well, she sleeps around a lot, so maybe that would appeal to a pubescent boy, but that's about it.As for rock and roll, Goldirocks offers absolutely nothing new or even interesting. Just a bunch of should-be-retired semi-has-beens-that-never-were-or-will-be.My prediction? No one involved with this will ever work again, waiting on tables notwithstanding.
Saw the film at the NSI film exchange here in Winnipeg.It was truly amazing. I really enjoyed it and so did everyone else I was with. It includes some great music (40 bands either appear in or are musically featured in the film) This is definitely a film I hope to purchase a copy of when it is released. The film paints a great (I assume accurate as the film makes grew up in the scene) picture of the Toronto rock scene. It's films like this one that prove Canadian cinema is no less in quality than any from around the world.
