Following a starting band, watching their struggle to find gigs, fans or a company that wants to produce them, it's all déjà-vu to me. I'm not saying that the acting was bad or so as it wasn't but the story just lacks some enthusiasm and originality. It's all too cliché to be special. And for a comedy it clearly lacks of humor. It's not the couple funny moments there are that will make this a comedy I will remember. If you want to watch something simular but really funny than I recommend you watch Flight Of The Conchords (2007), a serie that deserved so much more credit. The good part of Losers Take All is the music. For once the music didn't suck so that's a good point. For the rest it's really nothing special.

Somewhat enjoyable movie. I was invested in the story and characters but it doesn't go anywhere. Seems like a random portion of their life without any really arc or purpose. I wasn't laughing but was amused at some parts. I never hated it but felt it was barely worth watching (1 viewing, 10/28/2021)

After sitting through a complete train-wreck of a movie (my husband's choice) I figured I couldn't do any worse and picked "Losers take all" on Netflix, even though our musical tastes differ greatly. Amazingly we BOTH loved this movie - a rare occurrence.

I am not a movie critic, I don't care about actors, and I don't need to over-analyze; a movie that tells me a story, keeps me entertained, interested, and emotionally connected to the characters will get an easy 6/10 or higher ranking from me.

'Losers take all' does all of that and more; the acting was genuine and believable; and the trip back to the 1980s brought back memories; the camera was an unobtrusive observer without being unimaginative; but best of all, the movie made my husband and me laugh out loud frequently, and not once was I told to "turn the volume down"... the usual consequence of any music-related movie-watching that I enjoy.

In some films of the genre (a band forms and tries for stardom) the music sucks, or the actors clearly cannot play/sing, or most often... BOTH. This is not the case here. And yes, sure, there were some cliché moments, but they (as with all the funny parts) did not seem trite or artificial at all, but arose with organic authenticity. I especially liked how they integrated the 'on the road' experiences.

Although I was never really into punk and metal at the time, I loved the soundtrack for the film - great stuff! Made me feel 20 years young/er ; )

This movie Is just a an uncomplicated story of a group of young guys getting together to form a band named "Fingers" . They get the opportunity to hit the road and thus the story starts . The best part of this movie is the band itself and the singing . Gallner has a good voice and as I understand he actually did the singing . It's impressive!

A simple story without having to dip into the rough part of being in a rock band, on the road and looking for success . It's well worth watching !!

I, like most people saw this movie on Netflix. I was bored one day, this film was recommended to me. I read the description and myself, being a fan of the 80's indie post-punk scene (The Replacements, Husker Du, Dag Nasty, etc.), watched it... I LOVED IT!!! I've since seen the movie probably 5 or more times. The characters were really relate- able, they almost seemed like people I knew when I was in my late teens and early 20's. AND THE MUSIC!!! No B.S. great songs!!! Very funny moments, but not in the cheesy, slap-sticky kinda way. I can't recommend this movie high enough. If you're a fan of the mid-late 80's indie post-punk stuff and are a fan of real characters, real situations (for a band touring in a beat up van) and really great music, this film is for you!!! It's only available on digital at the moment, but maybe if enough people see this film and love it, hopefully we can get a proper special DVD/Blu-Ray edition.

9/10
