I'm not quite sure if this is a comedy of errors or a comedy of the music. Whatever it is, the movie starts out as a normal story, gets a bit silly, and then goes from crazy to ridiculous. But the music itself and the various back-stories keep the viewer fully interested. The plot is nicely laid out in that the "crime" here is making music, so you end up pulling for both the cops and the musicians at the same time. I fully enjoyed this somewhat weird storyline; but there's not much you remember afterwards. My Rating: 7.0
