Excellent Viewing, 15 September 1999
Author: (Warp-5) from Brisbane, Australia

I had heard about this movie briefly on a movie review show. The reviewers didn't rate it highly, but I thought it looked interesting. Of course I never got around to see it in the cinema. Two years later I happened upon it in the video store, one rainy Sunday. Well what an excellent suprise, I loved it... Having lived in a house with two local bands, I found it almost unbearably real. Each one of the characters in the movie I knew in real life, giving me the added bonus of finding this movie extremely funny. I strongly recommend this movie to those involved in young bands or those involved in the local band scene. My only gripe is the brief moments of over the top Spinal Tap dialogue. A must see.
