The Worst Film Ever
Good movie but grossly overrated
Good films always raise compelling questions, whether the format is fiction or documentary fact.
At first rather annoying in its heavy emphasis on reenactments, this movie ultimately proves fascinating, simply because the complicated, highly dramatic tale it tells still almost defies belief.
When I saw the set list for this DVD, I thought this would be golden. Instead it was as I remember seeing them live in 92, kind of bland. I enjoy listening to their albums (Bug and Greenmind are the best IMO, but Dinosaur Jr. live reminds me of a polished high school band. I was excited when they played Chunks, but Lou had no aggression, sure it is 25 years later, but it just sums up what I thought of this performance, bland.The strobe lights in the video are very annoying. It gets old fast.If you are a die hard fan, you might like this much more then I did? I enjoy them and consider myself a fan, but prefer to listen to their albums vs. watching them live. I would have loved to see footage of them in their pinnacle in the late 80's. If this DVD would have been a mix of live shows from years past to present, I think this would have been so much better.
