True or false: Almost Famous is the best music-themed movie ever?

[Ima5starman]

Singles while not focused 100% on music definitely uses the 90’s grunge scene in Seattle as an element and has Eddie Vedder, Soundgarden, etc. Fun movie as well

Ray
Bohemian Rhapsody

 

[I Am Legion]

It is a great movie. It is def up there. I loved Rock Star, Whiplash, Spinal Tap and Walk the Line as others have said. One that doesn't get credit is Crazy Heart with Jeff Bridges. It is a brutal story but so well done.

Rockstar and whiplash are a few of the best. 8 mile deserves a mention, it uses the rocky formula with rap and really works.

I think Scott pilgrim for me. Brie Larson singing black sheep, all the beck stuff, bands like be your own pet as soundtrack

 

[emefer]

Velvet Goldmine. The soundtrack is awesome as well

 

[TheNinja]

My vote is Spinal Tap.


But I don't think this has been mentioned yet.

That fact that Spinal Tap's IMDB rating goes to 11 is reason enough for it to be the GOAT

 

[Streeter]

Lol not even in top 25 for me. And levels below The Wall, The Doors, Walk the Line, Ray, Bohemian Rhapsody, a star is born , SNF , etc.. I liked AF but not best by any stretch imo

My vote is Spinal Tap.

Scott Pilgrim in my opinion has aged incredibly well. I think people didn't know what to make of it when it came out but in my opinion at least, it is incredibly tight.

Honestly never really understood the extreme praise it gets, thought it was decent enough but nothing earth shattering.
