The Runaways adalah nama yang tak bisa dilupakan dalam sejarah musik rock dunia. Bisa jadi, The Runaways adalah band rock pertama yang semua anggotanya adalah cewek. Dari band ini pula lantas muncul dua nama besar yang sampai sekarang masih dianggap legenda musik rock, Joan Jett (Kristen Stewart) dan Lita Ford (Scout Taylor-Compton).

The Runaways sendiri pertama kali dibentuk di Los Angeles di penghujung tahun 1975. Cikal bakal all girls band ini adalah Joan Jett sang gitaris dan Sandy West (Stella Maeve), sang drummer yang punya impian besar menjadi rock star. Dengan bantuan Kim Fowley (Michael Shannon), dua cikal bakal The Runaways ini pun bertemu dengan Lita Ford dan Cherie Currie (Dakota Fanning), dan Robin (Alia Shawkat ).

Tak disangka-sangka, dalam waktu singkat popularitas The Runaways meningkat pesat dan dalam sekejap mata pula kelima remaja berusia belasan ini menjadi band pembuka, band-band besar seperti Cheap Trick, Tom Petty and The Heartbreakers, The Ramones, dan bahkan Van Halen. Sayang di puncak kejayaan ini Cherry mulai kehilangan kendali dan memutuskan meninggalkan The Runaways.

RESENSI:

The Runaways is a 2010 American biographical film about the 1970s all-girl rock band of the same name. The film was written and directed by Floria Sigismondi, who based the screenplay on the book Neon Angel: A Memoir of a Runaway by the band's original lead vocalist Cherie Currie. Dakota Fanning plays Currie, Kristen Stewart plays rhythm guitarist and vocalist Joan Jett, and Michael Shannon plays record producer Kim Fowley. The film depicts the formation of the band in 1975 and focuses on the relationship between Currie and Jett until Currie's departure from the band.

Plot

The film opens with Cherie (Dakota Fanning) and her sister, Marie Currie (Riley Keough), as Cherie has just got her first period. Marie's boyfriend, Derek (Brendan Sexton III), picks up the sisters from Marie's job at "Pup n' Fries" and Marie announces to him that Cherie has gotten her period. Angry at her sister for telling, she informs Derek that Marie is not wearing any underwear. Later, Cherie is seen cutting her hair in a shag and putting on face makeup in an attempt to create a look resembling Bowie on the cover of Aladdin Sane (the cover is shown on her wall as a poster). The scene is accompanied by scenes of Joan huffing something with her girlfriend. Cherie is later seen lip-syncing David Bowie's Lady Grinning Soul at the school talent show and is the target of paper balls, to which Cherie reacts by flipping off the crowd, but wins the talent show.
Joan Jett (Kristen Stewart) is making out with a guy outside a club when she sees record producer Kim Fowley (Michael Shannon). Joan approaches him and talks about starting an all-girl rock band. Kim is interested and introduces Joan to Sandy West (Stella Maeve), a drummer. Joan and Sandy become friends and start jamming when Kim suggests that they recruit a hot blonde in the vein of Brigitte Bardot.
At a club, Kim and Joan look for hot blondes and discover Cherie. They ask if she wants to be in a band and she accepts. Then they tell her to come to auditions in a trailer park in the valley.
Cherie learns the cover song of Suzi Quatro's "Fever" and goes to audition, however they're disappointed at the song. Instead, Kim kicks Cherie out of the trailer and with Joan, thinks of a song for Cherie to audition for, thus writing "Cherry Bomb". Cherie sings it and, after improving, is part of the band.
After moving in with her aunt because her mother emigrated to Indonesia, Cherie travels to her first gig with the band. Soon, they get signed to Mercury Records and start recording an album. Due to the album's success, they travel to Japan to play a concert. After their performance, Lita Ford (Scout Taylor-Compton) throws magazines at Cherie that have pictures of her, something Cherie thought was for the whole band.
After an argument with Lita, Cherie, and Joan, crazy Japanese fans break through the window and chase the girls out of the building. Afterward, Cherie overdoses in the hotel, collapses in an elevator and is sent to the hospital. Upon arrival home, Cherie's alcoholic father is passed out on his bed. Cherie takes his painkillers and her actions are seen by Marie.
At the studio recording their next album, Cherie has a breakdown and refuses to play, followed by Lita trash-talking her and Joan defending Cherie. After a very heated argument, Cherie quits the band and leaves. Joan breaks down, throwing chairs and beer bottles against the glass. Cherie returns home while Joan continues playing and starts her own band, Joan Jett and the Blackhearts. Cherie collapses again in a phone booth in a supermarket parking lot. At the hospital, Marie visits her and tells her to get her stuff straight.
Later at a job, Cherie hears Joan's cover of "I Love Rock 'n' Roll" on the radio and calls the station, where Joan is visiting for interviews. After an awkward conversation between Joan, Cherie, and even the radio host, Rodney Bingenheimer (Keir O'Donnell), Cherie says her goodbyes and continues working, smiling when Joan's next song, "Crimson and Clover", comes on the radio.

Box office and home media

The Runaways opened in the United States on Friday, March 19, 2010, at 244 theaters.[1] Its opening weekend gross was $805,115—placing it at #18 at the box office—averaging $3,300 per theater,[1] and most of its audience that weekend were 25 or older.[8] Apparition changed their marketing strategy and began to target "older arthouse" demographics April 9, by which time The Runaways had grossed approximately $2 million.[9] It left theaters June 3 with a domestic gross of $3,573,653.[1] Variety reported that the film's underperformance at the box office could have been due to underfunded marketing and a failure to find an audience with either an age demographic that would remember the band or with fans of Stewart for her performance in Twilight (2008).[10]
The Runaways was released on DVD and Blu-ray in the United States on July 20, 2010.

Critical reception

The Runaways received generally favorable reviews from critics.[11] Rotten Tomatoes reported that 65% of 142 sampled critics gave the film positive reviews and that it got a rating average of 6.2 out of 10.[12] At Metacritic, which assigns a weighted average score out of 100 to reviews from mainstream critics, the film received an average score of 65 based on 35 reviews.[11] The performances of Stewart, Fanning and Shannon were picked out as some of the film's strongest elements.[12] Mick LaSalle of the San Francisco Chronicle noted that the film "doesn't always tell the literal truth" about the band, but felt that "[m]ore crucially, it conveys precisely what it was like to be young in the mid-1970s [...] And in getting that one thing right—in capturing that strange combination of despair and frustrated energy—it gets everything right."[13] Roger Ebert gave The Runaways 3 stars out of 4, praising the performances of Shannon, Stewart and Fanning, while writing that the film's visuals and music "[helped] cover an underwritten script and many questions about the characters" which he found slimly developed.[14] Dennis Harvey of Variety gave the film a positive review, commenting that it "proves [to be a] conventionally enjoyable making-and-breaking-of-the-band saga" and goes on to compliment the cinematography and soundtrack.[15] A. O. Scott of The New York Times felt that Sigismondi "infuses crucial scenes with a rough, energetic spirit, and shows a willingness to accept the contradictions inherent in the material without prurience, moralism or too much sentimentality." Even if The Runaways "hits a few too many standard music biography beats" and "may be a little too tame in the end", he added, "at its best it is just wild enough."[16] Owen Gleiberman of Entertainment Weekly gave the film a B− and wrote that Sigismondi's "sixth sense for how the Runaways were bad-angel icons first and a rock & roll band second" was the "most entertaining thing about" the film, which he described as a "highly watchable if mostly run-of-the-mill group biopic".[17] Betsy Sharkey of the Los Angeles Times felt that the film, which she described as "a street-level snapshot" of the titular band's creation, should have featured Jett's story instead of staying "too narrowly focused" on that of Currie.[18] David Edelstein of New York Magazine gave the film a less positive review, commenting that "since the music itself is secondary, there’s not a lot to this story," and adding "It’s Fanning’s movie: You can taste the ex–child actor’s relish for playing jailbait."[19] Mark Sells of The Oregon Herald was also less impressed, suggesting that the film "lacks an anarchistic punch - an authenticity and angst so distinctive of the band's rock n' roll revolution."[20] Time magazine praised the acting in the film, in particular the work of Dakota Fanning, stating that Fanning "turns in a performance of startling maturity", "seduces us utterly" and is "like a mini--Meryl Streep" [21]
