This movie is why everyone now knows 11 is 1 louder than 10

Rating: 10/10 (13 August 2002)

McKean, Shearer and Guest do an hysterical potrayal of a hapless aging metal band in this "rockumentary".
Everything that could go wrong does go wrong from album releases to hotel reservations, from the inability to find stage entrances to stage props, from the ill fate of there several ex-drummers to a dwindling fan base. Yet the band members go virtually unfazed by these major indications of their decline due largely to the reassurance of their manager. His reassurances that the bands is still great are almost as funny as the problems the band is experiencing, but in reality they are a long way from the moderate success they once had.
The songs in the music are not only very funny, but are usually pretty good.
Highly recommend!!! One of the 10 best comedies of all time. Along with Fletch, Animal House, Stripes, Vacation and Airplane.
