AKA: A Spinal Tap Reunion: The 25th Anniversary London Sell-Out
In honor of Spın̈al Tap's new album release ("Break Like the Wind"), we have another rockumentary following them on their latest tour. Mostly consists of stage footage of Nigel Tufnel (Christopher Guest), David St. Hubbins (Michael McKean) and Derek Smalls (Harry Shearer) performing at the Royal Albert Hall for their "final" reunion concert. Where the joke ends and the performance begins, no one knows. These guys are basically fused as these characters forever at this point. It's mostly played straight as a concert film, blurring the lines between art and life even more. I found it enjoyable, but nothing new.
