It's all been said

Rating: 9/10 (4 October 1999)

Everybody else here has said it already. I saw this for the first time during "freshman orientation" at the Berklee College of Music! Now if that doesn't say it all about this movie, nothing will. I could not believe how funny it was! This, right next to "Holy grail" has so many memorable quotes and scenes. My only gripe that it wasn't long enough! The songs are quite funny, and "Hell Hole" could actually pass for a real 80's hit! I find it hysterical when people don't get the joke and say "That band was the worst, it was terrible!" Would you believe that when Steven Tyler saw it the first time, he didn't get it either. this movie is a total rip on the glam bands that were forming during the late 70's early 80's, most particularly Kiss. It also pounds on the Led Zeppelin docu-concert "The Song Remains the Same" with Nigel's guitar/violin solo. Any current "Back Street Boys", "limp Bizkit", or "Korn" fans that take the music a bit too seriously would do well to watch this film.
