Washington, Computer Sci Lines: 19 1) Very clever, often subtle humor which is increasingly funny with the more concert films the viewer has seen. More delightful than hilarious, if ya knows what I means. 2) Tons of very good comedy people doing TINY parts (Billy Crystal is on for all of 5 seconds). 3) The characters are more than satircal stooges (Holy Ebert, Batman!); towards the end, they have been drawn out so carefully, and with such fine detail, that you really get to like 'em. A really nice ending. 4) However, if you feel like paying $4.50 for this, I would suggest that you have SOME liking for hard rock music; if you can't stand the sound of it, you'll have problems getting through this.
