One of the Finest Mockumentaries of All Time

Rating: 9/10 (5 May 2006)

"This is Spinal Tap" ROCKS. However, if you're looking for a conventional laugh-out-loud comedy, you may find yourself sitting stony-faced in front of your TV.
Until the dwarfs appear, anyway.
Fans of "The Office" and "Extras" will probably 'get' Spinal Tap straight away. The band members do a great job of unintentionally sending themselves up and the whole film is a comedy of embarrassment. Just listening to the song lyrics is enough to have me creased up with laughter.
The only reason why I haven't given this film a 10 is because it loses its documentary feel from time to time and plays like a straightforward movie.
