Um, wow, what a film.

I'm a blur fan, so I expected to like this film, this documentary, if you will.

What I didn’t expect was a story so sad, dramatic, god damn inspiring and immensely uplifting.

The power of friendship is displayed here (by blur and indeed the film makers) in a way that transcends the bands story and is just a moving piece of film making that is more a comment on what you can achieve with the power of love (cheesy but very true)

Brilliant. Best MOVIE I’ve seen for a while

Totally agree with you garretcarter. Watching it again now on BBC4, I did not expect to be so moved.

I'm an angel, honest! The horns are just there to keep the halo straight

I intended to watch this last year when it initially came out but never found the time (stupid decision), and I just caught it the other week. It was definitely much better than I thought it would be and it was an excellent and enlightening film.
