<P> Wahlberg spent five months preparing for his role as Chris Cole, working with a vocal coach, growing his hair, attending the metal scene and wandering around Los Angeles in - character . A concert scene was shot at the Los Angeles Memorial Sports Arena before 10,000 Metallica and Megadeth fans . While filming one Steel Dragon performance, the crew pranked Wahlberg by playing Marky Mark's "Good Vibrations" instead of a rock track, and footage of this is featured during the film's end credits . By 2001, Warner renamed the project from Metal God to Rock Star in order to attract a broader rock fandom instead of just metal fans . </P> <P> The film opened at #4 at the U.S. box office raking in US $6,018,636 in its opening weekend, and grossing a domestic total of $17,008,282 and $2,325,863 internationally for a worldwide gross of $19,334,145; based on a $57 million budget, Rock Star was a box office bomb . </P> <P> On the review aggregator website Rotten Tomatoes, the film holds a 52% "Rotten" score, with the consensus "Like its title, Rock Star is rather generic, being not so much about the heavy metal scene than about rock cliches and formula". On another aggregator, Metacritic, the film is rated 54 based on 32 reviews . </P> <P> When Judas Priest bassist Ian Hill was asked about his reaction to Rock Star in an interview in PopMatters magazine Hill responded "Well, it was a true work of fiction, you know? When we heard about the production company were going to make a movie based, as far as we knew, about Ripper joining the band we offered our help . We said' If there's anything you want to know, talk to us at the time .' And certainly our communication was cut off and that was it and they went off on their own tangent ." Hill added "I mean, I quite enjoyed the movie . It was entertaining, you know?" Hill was quoted as saying "It had nothing to do with Rob Halford, Ripper Owens and Judas Priest, it's got nothing to do with that, whatsoever . It was fiction . Apart from the fact that' Local Boy Makes Good'? That was the only true aspect of the movie ." Hill was quick to add "I watched it once . I don't have the urge to watch it again ." </P>
