The Runaways was a movie seriously challenged by U.S. critics. This has not gone unnoticed ára site I Am Rouge, who made a list of five recent films that have won critical unjustifiable, put it in fourth place.
# 4 - The Runaways: The film received critical acclaim, but for every positive statement received two negative. Floria Sigismondi did a great job to stay true to the story of Joan Jett and Cherie Currie, but the performance of Dakota Fanning and Kristen Stewart leaves a lasting impression in my mind.
Michael Shannon's performance (or crazy, as I say some) and producer Kim Fowley not be overlooked, as their interpretation goes beyond the conventional barrier. A unique soundtrack is really an excellent movie very underrated. If you saw any negative criticism and careful about the film, throw those notions out the window and give a chance for history is a great job.
