    You can't help but feel conflicted watching this superb documentary about the seminal New York-based punk rock vanguard, the Ramones.

    Unearths the expected footage from the crypt -- including a hilarious live video of the band arguing onstage over what to play next. The anecdotes are pungent and revelatory.

    Exceptional music documentary that was a hell of a long time comming. You'll laugh, you'll cry. I mean that too, as a hardened 9;Mones fan, I had a few tears. There isnt much worth knowing that isnt covered here. They even manage to get some honestly touching moments out of Johnny.
