If you think punk rock rapper Machine Gun Kelly is just another corny white rapper covered in tattoos to prove how hard he is, but essentially a joke, you’re not the only one. In fact, the new documentary, “Machine Gun Kelly’s Life In Pink,” almost looks like it’s made to combat this sentiment; don’t judge a book by its cover, etc. While you may know him more for dating Megan Fox, almost getting in a fight with a famous boxer at the MTV Movie Awards, and generally having a big mouth he’s not afraid to use, “Machine Gun Kelly’s Life In Pink” looks as if it’s attempting to show another side of the musician; specifically, how Kelly used pain, passion, and perseverance to craft a chart-topping career.

It’s not often you see a movie open where a rock star performs cunnilingus with gusto in the middle of a party, while the singer of the band doggy style fucks another and then said groupie squirts across the room in stuttering slow motion to an eruption of rowdy cheers. But hey, this is the story of Mötley Crüe, and these dirtbag lowlifes are obviously a classy bunch. Because, if you take classic tales of debauched hedonism— Led Zeppelin’s Hammer of the Gods, Aerosmith’s Walk This Way, and even Marilyn Manson’s The Long Hard Road Out of Hell— Mötley Crüe’s The Dirt: Confessions of the World’s Most Notorious Rock Band, takes the cake.

As an event picture surrounded by controversy and expectations, “Bohemian Rhapsody” garnered a wealth of attention, box office and surprisingly–to much of the film world’s dismay–Golden Globe awards. However, as a musical biopic, like “Walk the Line” and “Straight Outta Compton” before it, the film stayed safely within its lane. Much is known about Sacha Baron Cohen’s early iteration that promised to be no-holds-barred and truthfully revealing with Queen’s biography.

PARK CITY – Pete Davidson turned his world upside down when he started dating and, for a short time, became engaged to pop superstar Ariana Grande almost a year ago. Davison probably hates this mention in the first paragraph in a review of his new film, “Big Time Adolescence,” but the point is that because of that tabloid mess his talent has sort of been forgotten over the past year.
