I'm not sure about the feel of "Spinal Tap," but the spirit of “Victor Meldrew”—embodied by “David St. Hubbins” (Michael McKean)—is definitely present here! You couldn’t find a better, more grumpy companion for the newlywed and cheese-shop proprietor “Nigel” (Christopher Guest) and glue-museum curator “Derek” (Harry Shearer) as they reunite at the request of producer “Martin DeBergi” (Rob Reiner) to film their one-night-only gig in New Orleans. If you thought the "Bros" movie (2018) showed what happens when a band falls apart, prepare for something much more biting, because poor old “Derek” does his best to keep the peace between his two arguing colleagues, while all three have to deal with their record company representative “Howler” (Chris Addison), who seems clueless about music. As tensions rise and memories clash, recording begins in earnest, and thanks to appearances from musical legends Paul McCartney and Elton John, along with Trisha Yearwood and Garth Brooks, maybe "Stonehenge" will be played for the eager crowd just one more time. The film is a little slow at first, but once they get going and we hear both their music and their arguments, it starts to shine like the original from over forty years ago. The writing is clever and humorous; the song lyrics would never have been approved by censors because of all the verbal and visual euphemisms that maintain the original concept’s quirky charm. There's a great rapport between McKean and Guest, Sir Elton participates with enthusiasm (though his acting isn’t the most believable you’ll see), and it proves that these aging rockers still have what it takes to satirize an industry full of freeloaders, old resentments, and devoted fans who would attend anything. It doesn't quite match the original film from 1984, but I wonder how long their eleventh (or is it twelfth?) drummer “Didi” (Valerie Franco) will last until the end credits? It’s enjoyable!
