Wondered if humour was lost in translation, then came to realise, all characters are loathsome, & the makers seem to be going for an ultimate shocking tale. Couldn't finish watching it too unreal & immature. Its very hard to watch something when you can't relate to any character & hate them! Could though be better by end but i didn't make it that far

Surprised I didn't hear more about this. Interesting story & insight. Everyone I know still reckons he drowned in the pool because of drugs! A lot of attention to period detail. If a fan of music its definately worth watching

for some reason the start of the film didn't quite work for me - yet once it kicked into the sacrificial hooha - i was in. There's quite a bit hidden in this one & some excellent ideas & history if you can see beyong the fight or flight theme & have read a few books etc Well made, great atmosphere. I was surprised to find I loved it.

Not having listened to the album in about 20 years gives me an unbiased pov. Awesome - the 'classic albums's series is the best! Great set of doco's regardless of whether you're a fan or not. Gives real insight - especially for those budding hopefuls...

hot ghost hunting brothers - quite good production & fun if you like the topic - ongoing subplot has hooked me in though it suffers from being a tad formulaic on occassion

Hmm i was inspired by our insipid friend below to hire this as I find his right wing nonsense quite offensive personally. Though i do think he's free to do as he wishes - unlike those he defends. They do not allow us information or choice nor say & they attempt control & limit every aspect of our lives. Quite a problem when this kind of thing also happens to wreck the planet we are a part of.... anyhoo... good doco

Bit bored with run of mill zombie flicks? Top cast & crew are hitting their strides - all up a notch & thankfully less predictable. Surprisingly enjoyable - commentary is worth a listen.

Family fantasy romp. End a bit painful as expected. Great if you're twelve...

Interesting idea executed by egocentric moralising wankers. I did enjoy charmed a bit but became increasingly annoyed by the formulaic approach & excessive wardrobe changes. It does have a certain comfort zone, which does not excuse the writing. Insult to intelligence. Of course not having a go at those who enjoy it - just always wanted to express how much this show disappoints me

I think this might have been made just after the gladiator /troy thing? A bit odd - reasonable cast but laughable 'special' effects. Interesting enough story... I did manage to watch it all. Strikes me as a pilot that didn't quite take off.

Hmm not such a huge chan fan - can't say I bothered to watch the end. Would have preferred subtitles to voiceovers - terribly distracting (though funny for a while!)

Excellent - great writing, interesting metaphorically, hearty use of 'bad' language

Great stuff - noticed one of the writers from buffy involved in this. Funny for US stuff! Rather risque
(Excellent) - review by Monique
Great stuff ! Worth watching all from the start. Surprising as so much US stuff is terrible

The opening paragraph/narration with female voice is appalling hyperbole. The only good thing about this are the small bites of actual interviews with the band. Basically proves amatuer music journalism is the worst so don't bother ....
