Bulgantamir B @RT36664197 08/08/2024 I really liked the talented actors See more Бавуу Э @RT26109709 08/08/2024 Assembled from unseen archive footage, rare offcuts and masses of hilarious junk-culture detail from the pre-punk '70s, this inspired collage is as much passionate social history as rockumentary. Intercutting a touching, never-before-seen Sid Vicious interview with contemporary quotes from the surviving Pistols -- wittily filmed, like renegade villains, in silhouette -- Temple exposes the band's human side as never before.

This film also documents the rise and fall of the band, but this time includes much more commentary from the band members themselves, particularly John Lydon. The film features a lot of vintage footage from back in the day, which is a lot of fun. I do have to say I was annoyed by the contemporary interviews done in silhouette, which seemed an unnecessary stylistic. But still, the music holds up and the overall film is a lot of fun capturing the raw and gritty feel of the 80s British punch scene.

It is fairly one-sided since John Lydon's perspective on events is about 85% of what you hear, but Lydon seems a lot more reliable than the Malcolm McClaren POV offered in "The Great Rock 'n' Roll Swindle". There's a ton of material here ... pure gold for fans. See more Read all reviews
