Rock the Bells doesn't just delve behind the scenes; it makes a showstopping guest-MC out of each crazy new obstacle.
An electrifying, occasionally terrifying documentary.
Stressful to watch, but its entertaining stage performances and document of people under pressure should interest even non-rap fans.
For connoisseurs of stories of show business near-disasters, "Bells" is compelling viewing.
A fascinating glimpse of a dreamer and a music culture that has always depended on dreams.
It's a show we don't see, presumably because of issues with music rights, and while "much ado about nothing" might be overstating things, after more than an hour and a half of buildup, it would have been nice to see Wu-Tang perform.
This isn't about the verities of hip-hop so much as the chaos and confusion of mounting a big production with a slew of stoned MCs.
