Critic's review of The Rocky Horror Picture Show
View all critics' reviews (2)
- A spoof of horror and science-fiction movies, based on a hit musical, and notable mainly for the high-energy performance of Tim Curry, repeating his stage success as a transvestite transsexual from Transylvania.

  Great film, but can't hear the words sometimes
  
  This was a really fun film, and the cast were excellent. The only reason I gave it less than 5 stars was because I thought the sound quality wasn't too good... read more »

  Under whelmed
  
  Found it hard to follow, with no real plot. However, I did like the songs and I can appreciate the film's pedigree.
