A curiosity more than anything, "American Pop" has its singular animation going for it. That, and a pleasing soundtrack that lives up to the movie's name. It's the paper-thin characters and lack of flow that really kill the buzz. The jumps from one era of music to the next are pretty rough and you don't end up feeling attached to these people. At least, I didn't.
I can kinda see this on a double-bill with "Heavy Metal", at least in an animation sense. But story-wise, there's no comparison.
5/10
