This is like This Is Spinal Tap only it’s about punk rather than hair metal. Oh, and it isn’t funny. Emphasis on the latter. As near as I can tell, this is intended to be a dark, mean-spirited send-up of a music genre that’s already a dark, mean-spirited send-up. Thus the pointlessness of the production should have been self-evident from the outset. But they made it anyway. It comes as no surprise that the most entertaining moment in the whole movie is a ten-second cameo by the late, great Joey Ramone briefly playing along with the gag. Wish I’d skipped it
