Sheer Brilliance And Utter Stupidity!

Rating: 10/10 (27 August 2015)

This film is almost the very definition of a cult comedy classic. It is an outrageously funny mixture of sheer brilliance - on the part of the film-makers - and utter stupidity (the uproarious situational gags that the "band" find themselves in and their typically ridiculous quips and one-liners, wittily ad-libbed by the actors). In fact, it's just like the hard rock & heavy metal genres themselves, along with many of the musicians who play and tour the music - brilliant and boneheaded at the same time - which is why I love them! If you're a fan of improvisational comedy, mockumentaries, hard rock/ metal, campy silliness or you just want to watch a classic, tongue-in-cheek comedy, do yourself a favour - you'll be quoting it ad infinitum thereafter, with friends who are also "in the know"... Most people probably don't realize that the rating on IMDb for this film goes "up to 11"! Watch the film to find out why... A superbly entertaining, weirdly accurate and uniquely mirthful portrayal of "life on the road" for a bunch of ageing rockers. Get it now!
