    Bowie at the height of his glam-rock Ziggy Stardust period. An amazing experience, even secondhand.

    David Bowie is a hard working guy that puts 110% in everything he does, and in Ziggy Stardust he did a tremendous job. YOU ROCK DAVID!!!

    Being released at the same time that Bowie's latest album "Heathen" is being unveiled. Bowie fans who need a reason to celebrate the trajectory of the artist's career can make use of this cinematic Alpha and CD Omega.

    Passingly engaging. But you emerge from the film knowing as much -- or, indeed, as little -- as when you went in, and that's not exactly what documentary filmmaking is all about.

    As a document of the ever-mutable musician's signature persona, a wraithlike androgyne with a head full of apocalyptic dreams, it's fascinating.
