Movie Reviews

Financial Times - 8/10 by Leo RobsonIt's a rise and fall story (of course) and between the no-nonsense interviewees and the wealth of footage, a vivid and moving one.
Flicks.co.nz - 8/10 by James CrootDebutant director O'Connor's lively documentary goes some way to capturing the eclectic and eccentric nature of the label's management and recording artists.
Scotsman - 6/10 by Alistair HarknessIt's entertainingly riotous, though as a film, its print-the-legend approach could have used a few dissenting voices to balance out the rampant mythmaking.
London Evening Standard - 6/10 by Derek MalcolmA little messy at times, like McGee himself, but just right for nostalgics.
Guardian - 6/10 by Andrew PulverWith a talking-heads format, it's pretty trad to look at, but as a slice of pop culture history, it's never less than fascinating.
User Review - 10/10 by Stephen CIf like me you knew Creation records for Priaml Scream and Oasis this documentary shows how much more thei was to this label. Alan McGees label gave us some of the most amazing music of the last 20 years and McGee himself became the cebtre of a music revolution. Thats not to say he wasnt an angel ,he became an arrogant Malcom McClaren wannabe who enjoyed taking drugsand risks before he burnt out during the height of Oasis mania. What the film puts across is just how on the foot decisions were made ,for example letting My Bloody Valentine almost bankrupt the label with the mastepiece that was Loveless. And hows drugs and in fighting destroyed the Brilliant band house of Love. Of Course Oasis were the labels biggest act and of course Noel Gallagher is his usual funny self. But the label also gave us Ride,The Boo Radleys and my personal faves The Super Furry Animals ,whos music still pushes bondaries today. A film which delivers in both sound and vision and made me want to dig out my copy of the Furrie second Album Radiator
User Review - 10/10 by Kjetil HGreat documentary for those reliving the late 80s early 90s UK indie scene some of which will bypass our American cousins. I'm off to find some old vinyl to listen too
User Review - 10/10 by Dicky AInspiring, funny and deluded!!!!!! An insight into the world of British rock / pop of the 80's and 90's. If you love music from that period it's a must!!!!!! If you are from the X factor generation you won't understand!
User Review - 10/10 by Scott Mneeds more Ride & Super Furries, heh heh!
User Review - 10/10 by Henri NIts on netflix! Most of my favorite groups are on this label.
