Gripping story with well-crafted characters

It’s an especially fun movie from a director and cast who are clearly having a good time allowing themselves to let loose.

This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.

If you're interested in the topic at hand, you should just watch it and judge yourself because the reviews have gone very biased by people that didn't even watch it and just hate (or love) the creator. I liked it, it was well written, narrated, and directed and it was about a topic that interests me.

You better like Neil or this will be an interminable trip through bad music hell. Not nearly as good as his '72 film "Journey Through the Past", it still had a few fun moments but was mostly dull interviews and grainy, endless concert footage. Young needs to drop the gangsta/rapper look; in fact the entire band appears to be a bunch of washed up, burnt out, middle aged head banger wannabes who look to have been ridden hard and put up wet. I was particularly amused by Pancho as he kept insisting the producers couldn't sew up 30 years of Crazy Horse with a camera and a couple of questions. What's to sew up? Drugs, whores, bad music, and a never ending childhood wouldn't beg more than 2 queries at most. I admit to liking a few of Young's songs but for the most part I consider him a 2 bit guitarist who pushes grunge a bit too far.

If you're a Neil Young fan, you will love this movie. The music is outstanding, almost mind-altering in it's depth and beauty. Yes, I call it beautiful even though it's raw and riotous, even though it's crude and vulgar, even though it sometimes feels like the harrowing of hell, it's beautiful music. Young's music is incomparable and his live performance shows you what an artist looks like when he's under the influence of his muse. He gives a succinct insight into his vision of true rock music: it never gets comfortable, it never gets tame, it never gets easy. Neil Young is in a class with Bob Dylan and Keith Jarrett: artists completely dedicated to their work. I highly recommend this movie. Jarmusch does an incredible job of combining 3 decades worth of footage into this 1996 tour. The interview with Jim Jarmusch and Young is very interesting: two artists talking about what they do.

It´s a great movie but its problem is that you must be a great fan of Neil Young and the crazy horse to enjoy the film. Almost all the film are parts of concerts and if you don´t enjoy with their music you will get bored.

Ive seen about 3 other documentaries on Neil Young,but this one is the most interesting.Not just a typical concert film....but an overview of Crazy Horse.Some of the concert footage was a little long though.I am a big Neil Young fan and if you are also,you will like this movie.The best Crazy Horse movie is still Rust Never Sleeps ,though.
