About
You’ll likely enjoy this raunchy musical buddy comedy if you like Tenacious D in the Pick of Destiny or Popstar: Never Stop Never Stopping for big laughs and music-forward fun; Not for you if you dislike profanity-heavy humor or prefer family-friendly comedies.
Pros: buddy-road trip energy; great lead chemistry; plenty of soul music | Cons: very crude language; mixed overall execution; some feel-it-falls-flat moments
