Trivia
Ozzy Osbourne was at the concert filming, as well as Nikki Sixx, Alice Cooper, and many other rock legends, where a 12 Step Meeting was held for extras working on the film.

Goofs
After the news conference announcing Chris as the new Steel Dragon lead singer, and Kurt's comments about eating p****, Chris says to his girlfriend "What was I going to do? I can't argue with him." His lips do not at all match what we hear.

Quotes
Emily: Rob, I'm a business woman, and rule number one in this business is you go where the talent is... and all the fucking talent that was in this band has just left the room!

Crazy credits
The guys in Steel Dragon dancing on stage to a Marky Mark song.

Interesting Judas Priest 'insights'!

This movie was originally supposed to be about Judas Priest and Ripper Owens' climb to be lead singer. The various lawyers got involved, and all the direct references were deleted, but although, 'The names have been changed...' this movie is still about that!

I think it's interesting seeing some of the inner workings of Judas Priest, and if you are a fan of the band, or even of the genre, you will enjoy it. Of course, it's NOT perfect, it's the 'Hollywood' version of metal and Rock and Roll lifestyle....

...rent it, buy it, get a few cold ones out of the fridge, and pop it in the player...enjoy!
