| Seanax.comSean Axmaker... a scrappy, vibrant musical portrait painted in the bold colors of rock itself: impassioned lyrics, power chords, crashing drums and smashing guitars. |
| El Pais (Spain)Augusto Martínez TorresThe result will please the followers of the group... [Full review in Spanish] |
| DeciderBenjamin H. SmithDespite its shortcomings, its ramshackle portrait of the band captures their combustible spirit and frequently shows The Who at their very best. |
| User ReviewJohn AFrom Nothing To Stardom, This Sees Archive Footage Raided To Make A Superb Documentary About One Of The Best Bands Of British Rock. Sadly The Year Before The Films Release Keith Moon Had Died. |
| User ReviewAidan DFrom the action packed opening sequence, to the "Won't Get Fooled Again" ending, this is awesome, badass, and VERY high quality all the way through. |
| User ReviewCatherine RBEST MOVIE ABOUT A ROCK BAND EVER!!!! And I'm not just saying so because I'm a big Who fan or because of my endless love for Pete Townshend. No, this IS the best rockumentary ever made, mainly because it was made by a fan of the group (Jeff Stein). Rare footage, interviews, live performances (how I wish I could have been there!) , everything a fan wants to watch. Pete's powerslide is THE greatest moment in the history of rock. The second best is Keith Moon banging his wet drums in "The Rolling Stones Rock N' Roll Circus" performance of A Quick One While He's Away. |
| User ReviewMatt CI finally opened this after having it forever. We used to watch this in my basement in high school all the time with the tv hooked up to the stereo for full effect. A great rockumentary with a small goldmine of stuff on Keith Moon the Loon . . . |
| User ReviewCorey C[color=blue]The greatest rock documentrey of all time, The Kids Are Alright, chronicles the rock band The Who, who lasted 20+ years with at least two of their original members. The Who...smashed guitars... drove cars into swimming pools...the legendary, most explosive rock band ever. The four original members of The Who includes Pete Townshhend, Keith Moon (Dead), John Entwisle (Dead), and Roger Daltrey. This is one of the best movies I've seen and is currently in my Top Ten.[/color] [color=#0000ff]Thanx,[/color] [color=#0000ff]Yours truly,[/color] [color=#0000ff]C.C.[/color] |
