Editorial Review:

Amazon.com:
Spinal Tap it ain't, but Michael Lehmann's good-natured comedy of errors, about a garage band whose unannounced visit to a local radio station escalates into a hostage situation, is pleasant diversion with a fair share of laughs. Brendan Fraser plays the singer-songwriter of the unknown heavy metal band the Lone Rangers, a trio of socially challenged musicians rounded out by dimwitted but sweet bass player Adam Sandler and aging drummer/toy-store employee Steve Buscemi--who just happens to be packing a lifelike toy machine gun from work. Needless to say, the friendly visit is misinterpreted as a hostile takeover, but all the Lone Rangers want is to play their music on the air--and they sabotage themselves again by destroying their own demo tape! Joe Mantegna plays a burned-out deejay who tries to help the muddled metalheads as the media surrounds the building and asks the question on everyone's lips: "How can you be the Lone Rangers if you're always together?" --Sean Axmaker

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - The Lone Rangers is Plural, There's Three of You, You Aren't Exactly Lone
This isn't a varey realistic movie but it is fun. It sort of belongs on the shelf next to "Wayne's World". By this time the basic premise ( I hesitate to say "plot") is well known.
Chazz Darvey, singer guitarist for "The Lone Rangers" (a running joke throughout)has a fight with his beautiful blond but irritated live in girlfriend, Kayla, who has become increasingly digusted that she does all the work and pays all the bills while Chazz is unemployed and unsuccessful in his quest to become a ...

Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Eh, bad music but Steve Buscemi and Adam Sandler hold it together...
I remember watching this movie on tv years ago and it seemed better than I originally thought. Overall, you could miss this movie and you could go on with life without ever knowing about it.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Fun & entertaining
This movie is very light hearted. It is funny to look back to the real start up of the careers of Fraser, Bushemi, and Sandler!



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - BAD, BAD, BAD Movie
Please do not waste your money buying this bad movie.
Bad plot, bad acting, bad everything.
It's so bad I had to watch the final 30 minutes on fast forward just to get to the end. What a waste of (usually) good actors.



Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - Wait, how can you pluralize The Lone Ranger?
For some reason, I've always had a soft spot for Airheads. I first saw it, like most, on tv a few years back, and thought it was great. Being a musician, and being in a new band at that time, there was a lot that I got out of it. One man's struggle to get his band somewhere is a common theme, but how they do it is always the fun part. Especially when it involves holding up a radio station at gunpoint. Other things I noticed in re-watching it were Adam Sandler doing a role where he didn't scream like ... Read More
