Throughout his entire acting career, John C. Reilly has always played second fiddle, and his choice in movies has never really allowed him to show off his comedic talents. That is, at least, until now.

Walk Hard runs down quickly, and suffers further from having the wide-eyed and weightless Reilly as its star.

Walk Hard is the kind of movie that you want to love and not just like, but liking it is good enough.

... starts out brilliantly playing with the tired tropes of musical biopics before utterly losing its way.

The only gale-force laughter in later scenes comes when the hero meets the Beatles.

The one area where 'Walk Hard' does manage to hold its own against classics of the genre such as 'This is Spinal Tap' or 'Sweet and Lowdown' is the music, all of which is expertly written and performed.

Reilly is recklessly funny.

The entire film has three repetitive jokes: Dewey cut his brother in half, Dewey can't smell, and he's going to take drugs. So it's kind of amazing how well the film works.

Call me a cynic, call me a curmudgeon, call me perverse -- I loved every moment of Dewey Cox's story.

Awfully uneven, sometimes not funny at all, but John C. Reilly is so goofily sincere and Jake Kasdan and Judd Apatow include enough comedic gems to make it worthwhile.

Cox rocks.
