Volverse loco

For those that know the "Corman Clan", and like seeing them outside their comfort zone - this is worth a watch! Kinda like "Rock N' Roll Graduation" with it's music variety, mature humor, and pop culture references and cast. Yet nothing overly gratuitous, gross, or sentimentally syrupy. The problem with such a humongous cast is no one really gets to shine. The humor is over the top silliness for the A.D.D. crowd, and other than Lou Reed the other pop icons will be missed if one blinks. Even with Lou's brief appearances, he actually does perform in the movie - at the last half of the ending credits! But it is fun to see Malcolm McDowell as rock god Reggie Wanker. And Ed Beagley Jr. as "the evil bad guy". Good dumb fun for pop culture fans and star gazers.

When I was about 13 I saw this on TV and afterwards kicked myself for not having taped it. Some years later while travelling I saw it through a video store window and, well, flipped out. After getting home I called up my estranged father and blackmailed him into buying it for me. The video title has a very unfortunate Finnish translation (which translates back to "Star Gang")and the absence of letterboxing results in booms aplenty, but NOTHING can ruin my joy of watching this movie again and again!

The funniest and most original rock comedy ever! I first saw this film as a 14 or 15 year old and have seen it many times. Its music is fabulous with piggys version of hoochie coochie man a stand out. it is very rare to get the right mix of comedy/music in a film and i believe that they did this superbly with spinal tap a not to close second.And although i have not seen it for many years it still holds a very special place in my movie memory.

This is one of the most under viewed movies I can think of. If you have a sense of humor about musicians and their lifestyles, this is a great watch. I recommend this as the second feature on a double bill with 'This is Spinal Tap'. This movie is funnier than many 'A' list comedies and should have a larger fan base. Check it out.

Over the years I have probably viewed this picture about 20 times, and I really don't get tired of it. It is so full of silly things, injokes about the Rock n Roll 'thing' and absolutely outrageous performances that it is always fun to watch and to show to friends. Malcolm McDowell's scene-chewing Jagger-Bowie character of Reggie Wanker is an absolute highlight and look for some amazing personalities in roles in this movie. This is one that never loses its charm.
