Martin Le Gall - Pop redemption~ Film review

Can't decide between a metal movie and a comedy? Why not both?

Unlike any metal movie you know, "Pop Redemption" is a comedy masterpiece about Dead MaKabés, a black metal band that seems destined to end before it truly begins.




After 15 years without any significant achievements, three band members are considering leaving for family reasons, while the fourth is steadfastly determined to keep going. Alex, the band's vocalist, who takes everything too seriously, receives a call from Hellfest—one of the biggest extreme music festivals in Europe—to replace a canceled band. Alex, JP, Pascal, and Erik seize this opportunity, and that's where the adventure begins.

One small mistake on their road to Hellfest changes everything. They go from festival guests to being accused of murder! Forced to hide in a small village, they discover a strawberry festival taking place. Their only escape? To replace the pop band "All We Need Is Love," despite Alex's deep hatred for pop music.

After Alex refuses to play pop on stage and storms off, his bandmates are arrested. Fortunately, the officer's daughter, who happens to be a metalhead, helps them escape with her mother's assistance. They manage to get to Hellfest and finally perform. What about disbanding? They completely forget about it, deciding instead to learn from their mistakes and continue as a band.


Overall, the movie is thoroughly enjoyable! Not a single scene feels boring or skippable. The comedy is strong, though Alex's situation has a dramatic side if viewed from another angle. I think there's nothing more to say except: IT IS A MUST WATCH!
