    Funny! If you're a teenager from the late 70's you'll enjoy this film.

    A surprisingly funny movie about the misadventures of four guys on their way to a KISS concert. It's not exactly intelligent, nor is particularly deep, but it doesn't need to be; it's got a great sense of humour instead. A hilarious feel-good movie that's bound to make you smile.

    Often amusing with a very likable cast, especially Edward Furlong who usually does a terrific job. It's a good story, nothing deep or significant, just fun.
