The Dirt

Eighties hair bands never had to worry about the Me Too movement because everyone thought they were women.

Fortunately, any relationships the band in this biography had with their groupies appeared consensual.

When drummer Tommy Lee (Colson Baker) gets word his favourite band has disbanded, he propositions the bass player, Nikki Six (Douglas Booth), to form a new group with him. After securing guitarist Mick Mars (Iwan Rheon) and cover band singer Vince Neil (Daniel Webber) the foursome become Mötley Crüe. Eventually landing a record deal and garnering a few hits, the glam rockers implode due to drugs.

Focusing mainly on the sex and debauchery, this montage filled adaptation of the band's notorious memoirs never goes beyond their sorted tales. Meanwhile, the acting is pitiable, the dialogue laughable and the lessons learned are contrived.

And while groupies still exist, nowadays they have to sleep with the dead lead singer's hologram. Red Light
