    May not be for all tastes, but it's an up close and personal look at a true rock 'n' roll animal.

    Ultimately undermined by the fact that the two rock bands Timoner chose to focus on -- the Brian Jonestown Massacre and the Dandy Warhols -- simply don't matter as much as she thinks they do.

    Funny, fun, amazing music, and most of all, it's inspirational and teaches you a lot about the music industry and how to make it and how to fail. It was an adventure through and through and at no point did it get slow or boring. Plus the music was fantastic. Although it was a bit of a Springeresque portrayal of the Massacre, it wasn't overly innacurate either. A mad fun flick to watch any given night. Rent it! Expand
