Review of Heavy Trip

Heavy Trip (2018)
9/10
When Spinal Tap meets Blues Brothers meets Tolkien
15 April 2020
This is an absolutely hilarious dark comedy of a Finnish jerkwater heavy metal band, with all the tropes and cliches of the heavy metal culture present, both defied, averted, downplayed and absolutely played straight. A brilliant example of Finnish contemporary movie culture.

This moie is about a talented but an absolutely shy and introverted heavy metal band, who after 12 years of jamming and playing together in a basement of a reindeer slaughterhouse (where one of the members work), finally wants to make the big break and aims high. And everything goes horribly right.

If you are a metalhead, LARPer or generally interested in the geek culture, this movie is a must!
