BUY THIS MOVIE September 6, 2007

This is not a goofball subject. Air guitar is one of the unspoken truths associated with American culture since the early stages of rock. Most of the people you see at one point in time indulged themselves in the apparitional past time. This movie comes at a time when wielding the symbolic guitar is now approaching reality. I was struck early on by the feeling of magical metal tempo surrounding me as I contorted and muttered the groans of approval on my stage I could take wherever I went. My fingers on my hand danced seemingly close to the speed of light with the stage light eclipsed by the musings of others.
As a child, I took air guitar, we called it shredding, quite seriously, even more so after a horrible accident in a closet with my brother. Inspired by some fresh Winger riffs our star studded dream took us into a whirlwind of uncontrollable fits until it all stopped after colliding our heads into each other. I was unconscious for hours until I awoke and my parents explained that my brother had passed away. To this day, I shred air guitar to his honor as he was probably the best air guitarist their ever was. I honestly have no idea what happened in that closet dewd, but every time I watch this, you will be by my side.

I saw this at the SXSW film festival in 2006 mainly because it was the only thing showing at the time where were at. Oh man! Am I glad I saw it! No expectations at all...and it was one of the coolest things I've seen in a theater!! So freaking funny! The whole audience was going nuts pretty much the whole time. These real live "characters" are so hilarioius and so charismatic...they really make the fillm go. Such a crazy and goofy topic, but it was an awesome experience. If you appreciate good comedy and rock music, it's a must see.

This movie was one of the best I saw in the last year - a great documentary of really funny, unusual people. I especially liked the overall tone of the movie in its generosity and lightheartedness. This is the kind of thing that makes me feel hopeful about our current world.

This movie is AWESOME. Sure, the subject of the movie is air guitar but once you realize how fun, energetic and competitive it can be you can watch this like any sports documentary. Plus, the doc has a story arc so you find yourself riveted about half way through. I saw this in the theater and people actually applauded and yelled during certain parts of the film, it is that engaging.
