In 1981, Canadian heavy metal band Anvil released their first album, Hard 'n' Heavy, which earned them a potent reputation among discerning headbangers and established them as one of the pioneering acts of the speed metal movement. Anvil had a loyal following in their native Canada and they shared stages with some of the biggest names in heavy rock, but the lucky break that would have elevated them to real stardom never came, and legal troubles helped to derail the group's career in the mid-'80s. Years later, the likes of Metallica and Slayer would cite Anvil as a key influence, but lead vocalist Steve "Lips" Kudlow and drummer Robb Reiner struggled to keep the band alive, recording new material for tiny independent labels and trying to organize club tours as they juggled day jobs, families, and adult responsibilities. Documentary filmmaker Sacha Gervasi follows Kudlow and Reiner as they struggle to keep their ambitions alive despite 35 years of missing the brass ring in Anvil! The True Story of Anvil, which paints a sympathetic but warts-and-all portrait of the unexpected consequences of the rock & roll dream. Anvil! received its American premiere at the 2008 Sundance Film Festival. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

Some New Trailer For Anvil! The Story of Anvil

New Review For Movie Anvil! The Story of Anvil

While it's undoubtedly comical and touching, a pall of middle-aged gloom hovers over the antics of Canada's longest surviving death metal band.
Ruth Hessey-MovieTime, ABC Radio National

A winning and surprisingly moving documentary about -- wait for it -- a struggling Canadian heavy metal band that apparently influenced a generation of hard-rockers including Metallica, Anthrax and Guns N' Roses.
Cary Darling-Dallas Morning News

Cute if predictable.
Roger Moore-Orlando Sentinel

Now THIS is Spinal Tap.
Josh Freedom duLac-Washington Post

It's an affectionate portrait of performers starving for applause, achingly funny as only real life can be.
Colin Covert-Minneapolis Star Tribune

The new documentary Anvil! The Story of Anvil succeeds every which way, as '80s metal nostalgia, as a twisted sort of reality-show attempt at a comeback, as an unexpectedly touching portrait of a friendship.
Michael Phillips-Chicago Tribune

A winning way to thrash out an evening's entertainment.
Kelly Vance-East Bay Express

It's worth seeing because it's as dramatic as movies come, and the characters are more real than anything you'll see in a work of fiction.
Kevin Carr-7M Pictures

Anvil! es ante todo el retrato de una amistad verdadera, la de dos compañeros de ruta que a pesar del paso del tiempo y de los fracasos (...) todavía siguen persiguiendo el mismo sueño loco de cuando eran adolescentes.
Enrique Buchichio-Uruguay Total

Anvil is an inspirational documentary which provides witness to the power of the human spirit, played to a heavy metal soundtrack.
Matthew Pejkovic-Matt's Movie Reviews

Transcends thrash metal culture and becomes a working class tale of doing what you love at all costs.
Rob Humanick-Projection Booth

One of the most uplifting and inspirational movies of the year.
Tim Brayton-Antagony & Ecstasy

The journey of Anvil in the film is one suffused with love and passion...they are the poster-band for passion, and their story is worth checking out.
Karina Montgomery-Cinerina

What's so refreshing about 'Anvil: The Story of Anvil' is that it focuses on a Toronto band named Anvil who have been playing for 30 years despite having no commercial success to show for it.
Dan Lybarger-eFilmCritic.com

I found more real-life poetry about aspiration and failure in a fictional effort such as The Wrestler.
Josh Larsen-LarsenOnFilm

This is one of those movies that makes you want to find out what happens next, and those are the best kind.
Robert Roten-Laramie Movie Scope

You'll learn nothing new here about chasing the dream, but this non-fiction story may convince you to make room in your heart to appreciate the combination of earnestness and doggedness that some people maintain.
Jeffrey Chen-ReelTalk Movie Reviews

Its touching human interest story about survival hit me in the gut.
Dennis Schwartz-Ozus' World Movie Reviews

Well, the best movie of 2009 is a documentary about aging heavy metal musicians making a last-ditch effort at fame and fortune.
Louis Proyect-rec.arts.movies.reviews

Anvil! goes all the way to 11.
Christian Toto-What Would Toto Watch?

Let's be honest: Anvil is not metal's missing link, and "Anvil!" has been awfully overpraised. However, it's worth watching for the frequent moments of warm, humane heavy-metal comedy and the antagonistic push-and-pull of Canadian creative cousins.
Nick Rogers-Suite101.com

Two musical wannabes in a perpetual reach for the brass ring. But where it will lead remains unanswered by anything more than what they've always had in great quantity. Hope.
Jules Brenner-Cinema Signals

Anvil is rock solid entertainment. Whether you're mad for metal or not, you'll find the band's talent, spirit, humor--and mettle--a real rush.
Jennifer Merin-About.com

The music, heard in economical proportions, is secondary to the unexpectedly deep bond between its creators. Their story is an underdog's triumph that's difficult to deny.
Craig Mathieson-The Age (Australia)

See Anvil! if you love heavy metal, because these guys are legends. See Anvil! if you don't love heavy metal because this story is legendary.
Giles Hardie-Sydney Morning Herald
