There's a sharp sense of honest rock-chick energy that draws us into this film, even when its story takes a few overwrought and melodramatic turns.

Cult favorite Gina Gershon is at the top of her smart, snarly game...

While it gets a good deal of the background right, the picture stumbles in the dramatic department.

Edgy, intense, and thoroughly engaging. What makes this movie work is Gina Gershon - the movie rests squarely on her shoulders and she never gives a false note.

Aside from Ms. Gershon's performance (none of the other cast members actually played), there's little to elevate the music -- or the movie -- above cliché.

Played with the right combination of weariness and optimism by Gina Gershon, Jacki will be recognizable to any woman who has ever strapped on a guitar and plugged in, as well as to those of us who have encountered her.

Despite all its angst and bitterness, Prey doesn't convey the pure appreciation of rock 'n' roll that goofy Jack Black embodies in School.

...a fairly enjoyable look at the trials and tribulations of an all-girl punk band.
10/28/03
It's a raw and raucous rock story that, for once, gets the big picture and the small details right.
