Whitney Cummings in Studio 666

Whitney shows off some impressive cleavage in the new film from the Foo Fighters.

In the course of their storied musical career, they have made significant progress in their ongoing battle against Foo. This film, however, has to be considered a comeback victory for Foo.

Sample review:

Dave Grohl may be a talented songwriter, but it’s clear he has a thing or two to learn about screenwriting. By which I mean he needs to learn all the things.

It pretty much goes without saying that the acting from the Foo Fighters is bad, but so is it even from actual actors Will Forte and Whitney Cummings. That the dialogue sounds like it was written by a junior high drama team at a school for troubled teens. That the attempts at humor fall flat at almost every attempt. That the horror effects came from that same junior high drama team and were restricted to cheap rubber facsimiles of people, those plastic vampire teeth kids get from cashing in Skee-Ball tickets, the use of a Commodore 64, and as much corn syrup as they want.

  1. Meh. Dave Grohl is *still* one of the coolest guys on the planet, so he’s got that going for him.

    1. A very cool guy who actually wrote some pretty good jokes for the film.

      At one point, Will Forte tells the boys that the Foo Fighters are his second-favorite group – right after Coldplay!

      That said, I don’t think Grohl or his bandmates will be taking any writing or acting work from Kenneth Branagh any time soon.

  2. Paul Simon made a similar mistake with One Trick Pony. He decided to become a screenwriter and had himself & his whole band in there acting, very badly. The project was such a stinker, it nearly killed his career until he came roaring back with the Graceland album.
