Hillarious, brilliant satire

Rating: 10/10 (27 November 2001)

My favorite movie of all time. I've practically memorized it. As a long time musician myself I enjoy identifying those "Spinal Tap Moments" in my own career. This movie really hit the nail on the head in so many ways. It's not just silly, it really understands the music business and the realities of being on the road and shows a lot of attention to technical details. A lot of the humor comes from the lyrics which are stupid, yet could have really come from a band that expects to be taken seriously (as opposed to a "Weird Al-type" deliberate parody).
This movie is a true classic!
