Emotionally raw and honest Disclaimer: Never heard of this band before until I saw this documentary. But this is not a review of the band's music, but of the documentary.
Emotionally raw and honest retrospective on the band from it's roots, to success, to hiatus, to reunification.
I've seen my share of music documentaries, this is the most human emotion one. I actually teared up a little. This documentary was better than most movies.
It's about struggle, success, stress, regret, mental health, growth, love and forgiveness of both oneself and others.
The format of the one on one interviews, representational anime, interspersed with flash backs of the band and guest interviews felt more like a confessional/therapy session, a cathartic release, not just for the band members, but for anyone watching.
You will not turn it off, or even want to pause it. At least I didn't. That's good filmmaking.
