Leave your thoughts about Fix: The Ministry Movie.
| User ReviewAlexander B'Fix: The Ministry Movie' is a great documentary chronicling Ministry on the road (mostly during Sphinctour in 1996) mixed with interviews with musicians who Ministry had an impact on. You truly get to see just how crazy this band really was. There are clips of Jourgensen shooting up heroin on camera, David Yow (Jesus Lizard/Scratch Acid) running around naked on stage... and even more bizarre things like Jourgensen f**king a cooked chicken backstage (..literally!). Great documentary for a fan or anyone who wants to get an insight of Ministry at their rather chaotic prime. |
| User ReviewMega DA raw and honest look into life on the road with Uncle Al. |
| User ReviewPeter WI had no idea Uncle Al started his career by sucking dicks in a Toledo OH bus station. |
| User ReviewStephen SMinistry's documentary about the "Filth Pig" era tour. I was really excited to see this because that is my favorite era of the band. It was entertaining but there was way too much of the dark side of rock and roll backstage bullcrap, and almost no footage of the band live :((( |
| User ReviewTaylor MIf there is one thing Fix does well its that drugs arent appealing like 90 percent of rockumrntaries. |
| User ReviewFred HDisappointing. Yeah, I get it, they did a lot of drugs in Ministry. The movie came out in 2011, but seemed to focus on the period around 1996. Apparently the director was in a drug induced coma for 15 years. Why did Paul Barker leave Ministry? Not addressed. The humble beginnings of Ministry? Not addressed. In Case You Didn't Feel Like Showing Up (Live)? Not addressed. The trilogy of Anti-Bush albums? Not addressed. I could go on, but even I could take a bunch of backstage footage, splice it together on Windows MovieMaker, and come up with about the same quality of movie. |
