The Making of Bret Michaels (2002) User Reviews

Was this for real

What is this? I thought I was getting an intimate look in into how Poison came up from poverty, how Brett survived diabetes and moving out west from his house in Pittsburgh. This is a home movie bragging about all his stuff. His cars, his go karts, his animals he doesn't own and certainly we couldn't forget the totaled Fararri. Too many inside jokes and odd-ball narration and fart sounds made this very painful to watch.

Self Indulgent is what comes to mind

This is what happens when a guy has his personal assistant and his roommate make a movie about him, but no one's supposed to know that he's behind it. I think the former house in Malibu was really the star of the show and the cars and rusted out dune buggies. Let's be honest, we all know this guy made a fortune in Poison, but a video reminding us he has money is really a scary thing to send out to the public. Not sure the true point of this one.

Alighty, Then!

Interesting way to portray the front man for such a cool band! I am a fan of Poison and always enjoy a look back to the 'days.' It wasn't of quality of a best of video's or a professional show, but was enjoyable for the most part.

Nice for Fans

This wasn't the best done documentary I've seen, but I think for Bret's fans, it's a nice stocking stuffer. I can't see sitting through this more than once, but there are die-hard fans out there that will truly love this. I gave it 6/10 - 3 for production and 8 for originality. You gotta admit - something like this is a first.
