Now, if you want a good mindless way to blow a Friday evening, then look no further. You've come to the right place. Yeah, this movie is stupid beyond belief. It's also friggin' hilarious. Any movie that has Steve Buscemi as a long-haired, foul-mouthed bass player, and Ernie Hudson in general, I'm going to love. For me, Buscemi was the highlight and I loved everyone of his pseudo tough-guy lines like "Hey pal, you wanna try gettin' physical with me?"-Hilarious. Speaking of Buscemi, this one has a GREAT cast with Brenden Fraser as the leading man (Chaz), Adam Sandler as the pool cleaning drummer (Pip) and also features Joe Mantgena, Michael McKean, Chris Farley, David Arquette, and a whole slew of others, even Michael Richards.
The soundtrack rocks and the laughs come so often (very dumb laughs) that it's impossible to keep count.
Enjoy.
To say this film is a good one from a critical standpoint is a lie, as it is pretty bad in a multitude of ways. But as far as 1990s comedies go, or films connected to "Saturday Night Live" (this one very loosely), this ranks up there in entertainment value.
If nothing else, the cast sells this -- David Arquette and Michael Richards before their prime. Adam Sandler at his peak. Brendan Fraser in a transition from Pauly Shore to "real" films... and Steve Buscemi? This is just loaded with talent.
The music will not appeal to everyone. Even as a fan of metal, I have to say a lot of the music is not as top-notch as it probably should be.
Sons of Thunder aka Galactic Cowboys was a nice surprise, however brief. If you like the era of music that is promoted in this movie, give Galactic Cowboys a try. They're a nice little band from Texas that never got as known as they deserve, but always seem to be having fun making rockin' music.
Airheads doesn't break any ground, but it is a good time from start to finish. The story is over the top and unlikely, but it can be taken as inspiring.
It has a School of Rock vibe to it, although it came out quite a bit earlier than School of Rock, and it doesn't have much of a grounded underlying theme as School of Rock does. But both movies are true to the art they are portraying.
There's not much I have to offer cinematically here. Just enjoy the ride and the rock.

- QuizThe Lone Rangers' hit single "Degenerated" is actually a song by 1980s punk group Reagan Youth.
- BlooperWhen Rex suggests that the tape should be played on the air, Chazz replies it can't be done because the mixing console is busted. All radio stations, especially high profile ones (and even regional ones) have more than one broadcast booth, in most cases two (some with a third as a backup), so it would just be a matter of switching booths.
- Citazioni
[Chazz and Rex are testing Chris]
Chazz: Who'd win in a wrestling match, Lemmy or God?
Chris Moore: Lemmy.
[Rex imitates a game show buzzer]
Chris Moore: ... God?
Rex: Wrong, dickhead, trick question. Lemmy *IS* God.
- Versioni alternativeAside from editing some language, the TV version changes one of the last scenes: when Rex is pelvic-thrusting and Chazz gestures "no no no", instead of a shot of a pair of prisoners grinning laciviously, the TV edit uses a shot of two prisoners staring confused at Rex.
