The shrewd visual trickery and sleight-of-hand editing that collapse the distance between the original series’ zero-budget aesthetic and this more comfortably subsidized version can’t actually erase the passage of time. If anything, they deepen it.

Nirvanna The Band The Show The Movie is so affable, so good-natured, so modest—just so gosh-darned charming—that it’s difficult not to crack at least a little bit of a smile while watching it.

I laughed a lot, although seeing the film under the best possible circumstances… I still don’t quite see it as the full-on instant comedy classic that other people are seeing.

This duo has always asked the question of, “What if Nathan Fielder was an ambitious band kid?” and in this movie we get our answer through Tom Cruise-esque stunts and ridiculous moments of self-reflection and self-parody in the same breath.

As a Canadian who discovered their original web series in high school, I felt my sense of humor shaped and refined by their antics—and seeing them expand that energy into a feature-length movie that both fans and newcomers can enjoy was exhilarating.
