Might have been funny in it's day

Rating: Null/10 (9 January 2004)

I rented this movie because I'd been told it was a classic. Indeed a reviewer quoted on the cover claimed it to be 'the funniest movie of all time' or words to that effect. It wasn't but it does have it's moments. If you are a person who was a youth during the '70's & '80's as I was you will recognize the type of band these guys represent. In hindsight I realize that the music of that time was crap but it was all we had. If nothing else this movie captures the self-indulgence of rock musicians of that era. Think 14 minutes of "Stairway To Heaven" and you'll know what I mean.
