I have mixed feelings about seeing it. It reminds me too much of Lars and the Real Girl. Been there done that.

One of THE greatest drummers ever in one of THE best music docs ever. Opening with Ginger Baker physically attacking the film maker, Ginger commenting on John Bonhams and Keith Moons lack of prowess on drums and his various addictions whilst shaking like a leaf in his home due to his medication, it is refreshing to know that such characters exist in a bland world of musicians. The cornetto trilogy ends in style and it is much better than Hot Fuzz, the in jokes are better formed and it has an amazing streak of pathos not in the previous films BUT only a flash of a cornetto wrapper and the colour scheme regarding the cornetto tie in was gone Strawberry cornetto in shaun of the dead - red meaning blood and death, the blue vanilla in hot fuzz relating to the police and blue flashing lights but the mint cornetto means green and although it denotes aliens they oozed blue and that annoyed the crap out of me. However a film about a bunch of 40 year old men trying to recapture their lost youth is right up my street
