Added DiffLines:

* LifeImitatesArt: The story bears an uncanny resemblance to ''Film/ThisIsSpinalTap'': they are an old, washed-up heavy metal group, they go on a disastrous tour, one of the two key members leaves and then comes back, and they all end up [[spoiler:getting [[GermansLoveDavidHasselhoff Big In Japan]].]] Add this to the fact that the drummer is named [[Film/ThisIsSpinalTap Robb Reiner]]... The resemblance is so similar that many viewers thought the film was supposed to be a StealthParody of the same vein.
* RealitySubtext: The movie gets an extra feel-good vibe when you realize Anvil has experienced a resurgence in popularity in its wake.
* TheRedStapler: The band themselves have gotten rather more popular after this movie came out.
