Exaggerated spoof of everything music. Takes a swipe at Johnny Cash, Bob Dylan, the Beatles, Brian Wilson, R&B, Punk Rock, Blues, Hip Hop, song writing, auditions, the recording industry, groupies, drug culture, race, religion, sex, rehab, marriage & divorce, band break-ups … did it miss something? The sound track is actually not half bad. Jack Black’s cameo as Paul McCartney is a nice shift of gears from John C. Reilly’s Forrest Gump-like character, Dewey Cox. Look for Numb3rs star David Krumholtz as an agent – talent, not government. There are real singing stars in abundance, too, from the original Temptations to Lyle Lovett. Silly fun, nothing more.

it started out bad. it didn’t get any better. i couldn’t finish it. what i watched was ridicoulous. he cuts brother in half and he marries a 12 yr old. i know it’s a spoof or something like that but it wasn’t like scary movie or the naked gun movies. it was trying to appeal to little boys.
