This Flixtor movie satirizes the pretentiousness that some rock musicians exhibit. There’s a memorable scene where Nigel expresses his frustration to his manager about the size of the bread for sandwiches backstage before a performance. It’s hilarious!!! While all three leads deliver strong performances, Christopher Guest as Nigel undoubtedly delivers the biggest laughs. The film pokes fun at rock documentaries like The Beatles' A Hard Day's Night and Led Zeppelin's The Song Remains the Same. The concert scenes are both amusing and pitiful, especially towards the end when Spinal Tap performs in nearly empty arenas. In just 82 minutes, this film offers more laughs than most comedies.
