WHAT THE HELL SHOULD I WATCH ON NETFLIX?

ANVIL! THE STORY OF ANVIL (2009)

May 8, 2017 By aredmond

A documentary about two lifelong friends from Canada who started a hair metal band in the ’80s, were praised by their peers, but never made it to the big time. Decades later, married with children, and working 9-5 jobs, the two decide to launch a comeback tour in the hopes that maybe, just maybe, they’ll finally get their big break.
[Unrated]

Alright, maybe it isn’t the most inspired premise for a rockumentary, but whatever, the end result is great and the formula continues to work. Doesn’t matter if you’ve never heard of Anvil, doesn’t matter if you could care less about metal. It’s hilarious, it’s entertaining as hell, it’ll put a lump in your throat, and it might just have you humming “Metal on Metal” for days on end. Easy recommendation.

It’s got a 98% on Rotten Tomatoes.

WATCH IT NOW

Or how about another BIOPIC, one with some more familiar faces?

Or maybe another DOCUMENTARY, because metal really isn’t your thing?

Or perhaps another MUSIC movie, one with some tunes you’ve heard before?

Or shall we pick something at RANDOM?
