Admirable film.

It's complicated... I really like the directing, acting and writing but, there are issues with the way it's shot that I just can't deny. As much as I love the storytelling and the fantastic performance but, there are also certain scenes that didn't need to exist.

It’s not bad or unwatchable but despite the amplitude of the spectacle, the end result is underwhelming.

Motley Crue is a great hair metal band. I specify "hair metal" because as a regular rock band they're crap. Hair metal is a different style of music altogether and graded as such, the Crue are one of the all-time best. They've got the image, the sound, and the lyrics.The videos are another thing. Some of the '80s videos like "Home Sweet Home" were ridiculously cheesy but good fun. (The opening with Nikki, Tommy, Vince and Mick answering their phones is just plain silly and looks like something from "Bill and Ted" or "Fast Times at Ridgemont High".) Later on they got a bit darker. "Girls, Girls, Girls" (their best song tied with "Dr. Feelgood") follows the Crue as they ride their motorcycles to a strip club and watch babes strip down. The uncensored version includes nudity."Dr. Feelgood" is a music video about a drug dealer and it's a bit reminiscent of "Scarface" starring Al Pacino. I didn't like it too much because I thought the bits with Vince singing were quite cheesy and annoying.The Crue have changed a lot over the years - image-wise and musically - and this presents all their stuff from '81 - 2000. If you're a fan of the Crue or just getting into them now, it's a good place to start - along with the new "Red White & Crue" greatest hits compilation, which rocks.

This is a genius DVD! This collection doesn't hide anything. From the funny eighties stuff to overproduced latter days, it's all here!! Videos are great and the music is just too good not to fall in love with the band. The new rock n roll stars owe those guys everything they reached in their lives - all the fame and of the good riffs. The Nikki Sixx / Tommy Lee commentaries are hilarious and so are some scenes from their early videos. It's fun all the way to video number 27. Yes, 27 videos, all censored details and all the biggest hits are here on one place. Surely the best video compilation ever released. The future is in Motley Crue!27 stars, no doubt about it.
