As someone who LOVED the first one, this didn't land for me. The emotional grounding of the first is completely absent which leaves nothing to anchor the increasingly ridiculous hijinks. Character motivations just don't make much sense anymore and the overall narrative is pretty overused in these types of films. That said, there's a subplot with Baby Metal that was just perfection. Watch it for Xytrax, but lower your expectations through the floor if you liked the first.
Finnish Spinal Tap goodness.
Both movies are excellent
Finnish them!
This is the best metal-centered movie I have ever seen. I love how they subtly address issues within the genre! Bonus points for having Baby Metal
