I really wanted to like it more but it's very complicated when its whole concept is rooted in a parade of stereotypes.

The message of acceptance is pretty much the whole thing, but it only covers the basics.
It's about discovering your identity and the personal and social acceptance that comes with it. I can give it credit for that, but that's as far as it goes.

Metal Lords is something of a mash-up that never quite comes together and, for the most part, feels rather scattered because it never gives its three main characters proper development, just skims the surface without going deep. Which is to be expected considering it's Netflix release for teen audiences.

And I know the movie is called Metal Lords, but Hunter's character, metal uniform and all, is the perfect definition of someone stuck in one genre, and people who only listen to one genre of music bore me to death.

An enjoyable coming-of-age movie, but lacks any real character development for its main cast.

Decent high school flick, the actors seemed close to the actual age they are portraying which is shocking at this point.

The cast is alright, I didn't know any of the actors which is always refreshing.
But the characters they portray remind me of any high school outcast wannabe badass movie ever, with a plot as original as eating with a fork, the good old "We're losers, but if we work together we'll kick so much ass blah blah".
If you want a cool metal band movie you will be disappointed, if you want a high school movie off the rack with some rock music as a side order you just might be able to have a good time watching this.

Didn't know much about this one until I stumbled across it on Netflix. I was pleasantly surprised. It has a lot to like. Good casting, funny and all around a good time.
