A very well made documentary about the band 30 Seconds to Mars' struggle with their record label. A very informative documentary that opens your eyes to the shysters in the music business. Redundant at times, but it needs to be redundant to show the audience what a stressful ordeal and struggle it is to come to a compromise with the shady record label.
Jared Leto is very talented, an excellent singer and a true artist all around. I have a much bigger respect for him now. Hopefully more people will see this documentary and will come together as a whole to be the change in getting these money hungry record labels to change the way they do business. I feel very sorry for musicians now, I had no idea it was like this. 30 Seconds to Mars could have kept fighting, but they understood you have to pick your battles. And they won in what they wanted and they also won on an even bigger scope by showing the world in this documentary how awful record labels are.
On a final note, I can truly say Jared Leto seems like a really cool guy. I was an actor in a short film once and he was cool with letting the production shoot right outside his house. Not many actors/musicians would be cool with that kind of thing. He truly does fight in many ways for the little guy. Not many like him in the business. He deserves all of his good fortune. Do yourself a favor and see this documentary right away. It's fantastic!
