Hilarious, must see movie from vets of Saturday Night Live.

Rating: 10/10 (11 July 2001)

Definitely IMO one of the best comedies of all time, "This is Spinal Tap" is a hilarious and often scathingly true satire documenting the many pitfalls "Britain's Loudest Band" encounters while with famed commercial director Marti DiBergi (Rob Reiner). I won't spoil any of the great gags, but I will say it involves close attention and repeat viewings to get many of the jokes before they happen. Derek Smalls, Nigel Tufnel, and David St. Hubbins are Spinal Tap (along with drummer Mick Shrimpton and clueless keyboarder Viv Savage) and play many ludicrously titled "hits" during the film with hilarious results. Highly recommended, 10/10.
