Is 'Springsteen: Deliver Me from Nowhere' a Flop?

What's one movie you could watch a million times? For me, it's Walk Hard starring John C. Reilly. The parody of music biopics takes a crack at every cliche of the genrefrom over-romanticizing the moment an artist wrote their famous song, to how quickly these career-spanning movies breeze through their life. Walk Hard is also just packed to the brim with ridiculous jokes, and anything that makes me laugh in 2025 is a win.

the annoyingly titled Spinal Tap II: The End Continues. (How about This Was Spinal Tap or This Is Still Spinal Tap or Tapped Out or, really, anything else?) It's been fifteen years since guitarist Nigel Tufnel (Christopher Guest), lead vocalist David St. Hubbins (Michael McKean), and bass player Derek Smalls (Harry Shearer) have performed together, but a long-neglected contractual obligation forces them to reunite for one show at the Superdome in New Orleans.
