For 27-year-old Ben (Josh Lawson), life couldn’t be better. A well paid job, friends, parties, girls and nothing to tie him down. But when he is invited back to his old school to join several other ex-students including Alex (Rachael Taylor) and Jim (Ed Kavalee) in talking about their personal achievements, something goes wrong. Ben is the only speaker not to be asked a question by the school kids. This triggers a year of soulsearching and looking for answers in all the wrong places.
From his best friend Andy (Christian Clark) whose solution is that they both take another holiday, to his mentor Sam (Lachy Hulme) who loans him a sports car in the belief that there’s nothing like excessive speed to resolve emotional turmoil. Not even Ben’s father (Rob Carlton) or friends Nick (Daniel Henshall) and Em (Felicity Ward) can offer much in the way of meaningful guidance.
Of course, it’s not easy seeking enlightenment in nightclubs, or on the ski fields of New Zealand, and when you start dating a Russian tennis star things can get really complicated. As the poster boy for a generation desperate to tick every box, Ben begins to suspect that the meaning of life may well reside in the things he's already doing - and a girl he used to know.
剧本上有些俗套，还是几个校园卢瑟在组乐队过程中结识朋友、坠入爱河、与家人和解最后赢得认可（虽然比赛没拿第一）的故事。找贝斯手、大提琴女孩融入乐队等段落也比较单薄。总体上不如《摇滚校园》，毕竟那是林克莱特。但本片的青春片气息逼人！把teenager的愤怒、孤独、叛逆、渴求都表现得很到位。显然是导演功劳超过了编剧。还有半颗星是为了片中的金属乐队和歌曲加的！铁娘子、Metallica、黑色安息日、圣徒犹大、摩托头、Dio……金属四巨头全都出现了！连男主的车牌都是铁女的专辑“Powerslave”！大提琴当贝斯的设计真是太赞了。Emily的形象跟Beyond the Black乐队女主唱很像啊。
《关于重金属乐队找不到贝斯手于是找了一个大提琴手这件事》
尴尬得给我抠出一个别墅。。。玩梗玩不到点上，傻缺的青春校园剧，和重金属囧途差远了！死亡金属画什么黑金属尸脸？大提琴倒是有一点Apocalyptica的感觉，但整体风格太混杂了，这都啥跟啥啊啊啊啊？！
一直不太喜欢极端重金属，太吵，然而本片也算是为我好好普及了这个冷门音乐品种。原以为是成长类的影片，预赛，半决赛，决赛，主角封顶那种，结果只有一首歌就结束了，当然非常shock，艾米丽拿着大提琴出场惊艳全场，可惜歌曲实在太少啦！
中规中矩吧，可可爱爱的年少时光，要是我年轻时有这样的社团和朋友吉他也不会弹得这么烂了，小年轻的恋爱也好可爱，重金属乐队不是恐怖吓人，只是一种态度，不错
重金属的装饰可太和我的心意了
片子三星，情怀一星，one STAR for METAL！当失真过载想起时，仿佛回到了自己中学组乐队的时光，一群破孩子只想用金属改变世界。可惜，主音吉他和贝斯为了泡键盘解散了，WTF！几个老炮泳池边出现的那段，直接炸了我去！最后的演出和尾声的排练，帅呆了！金属万岁！
特别及格的一部简单清新的青少年片，没什么毛病。
freedom cost everything
剧情挺简单的。演员选得都好显小和学生气啊。说metal gay和Emily爆发那段很好笑
好可爱的一部电影，果然重型的鼓手是其他乐队最向往的乐手了哈哈哈哈哈哈哈
虽然和其他青春片套路近似，但明显高出一个档次
还好剧情不太尬。但是感觉青春题材看不进去了
重金属大提琴太灵了吧！比起skullfucker，skullflower更适合这三个中二少年嘛！
war pigs好好听
一部美國青春校園片。基本所有美國青春片基本都逃不過友情這根主心骨
凯文真是个温柔的小天使，敲鼓时头发乱舞时好帅啊，最后的乐队大战曲目简直燃爆
smell like a teen spirit
情节一般，不过音乐很燃。最喜欢那个当了医生的前乐队吉他手，扫地僧一般的存在。对于青少年的友情，爱情，诱惑都用metal给出了答案。还算不错
《女生要革命》是通过杂志发出青春期的呐喊和主张，这里则转为在音乐中找到能量；尽管这种直白浅显的青少年戏剧很少能有太多惊艳的发展与更为深刻的转向，但它仍比无病呻吟的恋爱故事要有意义，也依然成为不少足够优秀的青少年演员在拥有更多角色前最好的试炼。Jaeden Martell真的很棒，饰演“Hunter”的Adrian Greensmith同样惊艳。
