A heartfelt and inspiring documentary about perseverance. Capturing the passion and grit of a band refusing to give up.
Spinal tap but real. Very interesting documentary.
The friendship here is worth the watch, but Anvil's story is interesting and endearing.
A fascinating documentary, sometimes very funny, sometimes heartwarming, sometimes pretty sad. Essential.
Awesome true story of perseverance! So happy to see they made it after so many years!
A “real life Spinal Tap” sounds amazingly fun, but it quickly got cringey and sad.
The most honest and endearing music documentary I've ever seen.
An intriguing documentary that's as comedic as it is tragic
The story of a down and out metal band, not incredibly inspiring nor interesting, but it has a few moments of glory
One of the best feel good docs I’ve seen in a while. These guys are so cool!
