Rating: 7/10 (3 February 2001)

Spinal tap is what you would call a typical Cult movie and what i mean by that is , it is a film that is sometimes looked back on with so much romantisism that it seems better in the memory than it actualy really is. I hadn't seen This Is Spinal Tap for many years and and i often looked back on the film with fondness and i still do after seeing the film today but not quite as much. What is unusual about this film , and i dont often say this about films is,that it is to short at 80 minutes but having seen the DVD with all the extra scenes it is a wonder as to why this film was not made longer when originally put together. It's hard to say to much about the acting because i would presume Christopher Guest,Michael McKean, Harry Shearer and Rob Reiner ad lib a vast majority of the film and brilliant at it they are. Some of the scenes are so funny and they will go above the heads of many people but i just think it is getting a little dated. 7 out 0f 10
