Chubby rock singer Meatloaf stars as Travis W Redfish, the greatest roadie in the world, in this rock 'n' roll fantasy. If that opening sentence doesn't say it all, it leaves you in no doubt about what you're in for when you watch this fast-moving and sporadically funny rock film. The only possible surprise is that the Big Man doesn't do any singing himself, although in compensation there are musical interludes from Alice Cooper, Blondie and Roy Orbison, among others. What little plot there is needn't concern us here, because it won't while you're watching it; but, for the record, Meatloaf is a technical wizard who's talked into going on the road with a rock band. Great fun, with an engaging central performance from Meatloaf.
