Your Opinions and Comments
The rockumentary classic which spoofs rock bands around the world, and features classic one liners that will remain with you for a long time after you have finished watching his film.
Overall an amazing disc, marks out of 10? Well as predictable as I can be, this one goes to 11.
I have to say this film for me isn`t worth owning on DVD, its a view once and once only movie, I cannot see myself laughing at the film a 2nd time. This is a special edition for die hard fans of the movie in my opinion.
