I admit it, I never really liked this band. I am the same age as the guys in the band and grew up with a lot of the same experiences but I always thought their music was shallow and insignificant. I was a Clash guy, but....
THIS MOVIE ROCKS!
I also admit my mates loved them and I was dragged into the big hair orbit on more than one occasion.
This is a well told story about regrets,love, hedonism and music. About lost souls searching. about lost souls finding.
All the performers were very capable and though I have not liked even one film previously done by this director, he did a very good job of capturing the energy and pacing of a rock n roll lifestyle.
A fun ride but not for the squeamish.
