Movie Info

This droll mockumentary with a Mormon twist chronicles the ups and downs of Everclean, a Utah trio led by egotistical Will Jensen (Will Swenson) and his hotheaded brother (Danny Tarasevich). The loss of the group's third member sends the siblings in search of a replacement; they settle on callow Kirby Laybourne (Kirby Heyborne) -- who soon ends up in the midst of a fraternal power struggle. Can the band reach the top before their egos explode?

As in the case of Nigel Tufnel and company, you genuinely like them even as you're laughing at them.

No, it's not particularly original. But it's pretty darned funny.

While the movie shows promise, it isn't as funny as a movie about a Mormon boy band ought to be.

Amusing -- but only in spurts.

A great mockumentary of the making of a boy band that is strictly LDS. It's fun to see how they struggle to keep it LDS based.... amusing to see the bad combo!
