Self-important, over-dramatic, uninspired.
This movie feels like it was made purely to piss off people who want good shows
View MoreEasily the biggest piece of Right wing non sense propaganda I ever saw.
View MoreGreat movie. Not sure what people expected but I found it highly entertaining.
View MoreFor lovers of Bach's music you'll find little to fault with this documentary. However for the casual viewer the film comes across as a little too enthusiastic and one sided. The documentary is essentially a 2 hour compendium of (largely north American) talking heads gushing uncritical praise on Bach and his works, interspersed with pieces of Bach's music performed on a variety of instruments. The documentary assumes the viewer already knows Bach's biography (this is certainly not a history lesson) and there is little context or comparison to other composers of his generation.Non-Bach lovers may come away from this film feeling a little unfulfilled, you have been warned.
