Summary: Four members of a high school band called Mystery do everything they can to attend a KISS concert in Detroit. In order to make it to the show they must steal, cheat, strip, deal with an anti-rock mom and generally do whatever it takes to see the band that has inspired them to be musicians. Plays like a KISS advertisement but the GIV'R mentality leaves the viewer with a smile on their face. (imdb)

I think you need to be familiar with KISS to truly appreciate it, but if you are, you'll enjoy yourself.

Does a good job at generating nostalgia for an era in which I wasn't even alive. You get caught up in the excitement of the lead characters and there are enough funny moments that don't resort to being mere gags.

A rock and roll adventure. A kiss produced film about 4 teens roughly to resemble Gene, Paul, Ace, and Peter that will do anything to see Kiss in concert. This movie has its funny parts a kick ass soundtrack and even Gene Simmons very sexy partner Shannon Tweed.

Maybe after all those disco movies, I'm relieved to see what looks like a bunch of Midwest rockers that i can relate to better, or maybe it's just a fun romp. Some of the interactions while over the top are still about right, and the coming of age aspect is played down. Finally, i get to feel nostalgic about high school.

A very simple, very funny, very entertaining film about four kids on a mission to see KISS in concert. It's nostalgic and cool and each character has a separate, interesting adventure. Really good!

This movie has several entertaining moments and is one of those movies where the journey is more important than the ending. The plot is so simple, but the film isn't out to break down walls or push the envelope. It's just pure nostalgia about four kids who are obsessed with KISS in 1978.

Some good laughs here and there throughout the film. It's worth watching watch if the story of a group of friends being stupid and doing stupid stuff sounds entertaining.
