Viewing Notes

This movie got off to a slow start and I wondered if it would live up to the standards set in previous Apatow films. Fortunately it does. By the end of the movie I decided it would be one worth owning and re-watching. It’s a pretty good take on the music bio pic genre and the soundtrack is actually very good.
