This was one of the newer editions to the book 1001 Movies You Must See Before You Die, this was described as being like This Is Spinal Tap, so I wasn't sure if it was a mock film or real life, but I was looking forward to this rockumentary either way, from director Sacha Gervasi (Hitchcock). Rock bands like Scorpions, Whitesnake and Bon Jovi have become very successful and influential, selling millions of records and filling concert venues, and since the 1970's the rock band Anvil have tried to live the same dream, they are indeed influential, but have got nowhere close to the same success.
