40 Years of Fuckin' Up is Spinal Tap, but real. It's a film about the infamous, fairly un-famous, and beloved punk rock band NOFX. This is the unbelievable story about how a group of untalented drug-addled teenage punks somehow became the most successful independent band in history. And they did it haphazardly all on their own.

7/10

The documentary is ultimately a frustrating send-off: part hagiography, part expose, never fully committing to either...it's the perfect send-off for a band that never seemed interested in resolving its own contradictions.

3.5/5

It's mostly smoke and mirrors, clever and cheeky. Radically close and personal.

This film is a stunning, emotional ending to a band that means so much to a lot of people.
