Sorry but is this it now ?


I really do not understand how the hell films like this are being made .Is't there like a recession on ? How did the screenplay and script ever get past a shredder ? Was it written by a 10 year old who grew up on Idiots guide books and Q magazine ?

The portrayal of real human beings who were hopeful musician/rock star/icons was insane .
Each person became a caricature ,the whole relevance of the times,and situation became like a 4 step cartoon . Why Rickman was involved ,who knows ,bad choice ,bad film and an insult not only to people who had to suffer it but of course to the identities of those people involved in a significant part of music history .

Totally agree. Was very disappointed. It was more like a bad Dead Boys doc. The lack of Ramones music was bad enough, but they Were CBGB's, more than any band.
