Many great and iconic drummers are here. Some interesting stories but to have a documentary about rock drummers and not to include probably the best that has ever been, Neil Peart, is almost sacrilegious. It's a doc about great rock gutiarists and never mentioning Eddie Van Halen, Jimmy Page, Jimi Hendrix, or Eric Clapton.

I enjoyed it but give it a 7 for for an outstanding omission. Maybe a follow up with a full documentary for Peart would be a nice thing. It's definitely worth a watch if you're a fan of music especially more of the Grateful Dead stuff as it's Bill Kreutzmann's son whose creation this is. Enjoy it for what it is, but I was a bit disappointed.

I think Scorsese makes some top notch movies. Unfortunately, this is NOT one of them. Did he not read the book? This was disjointed and boring. The acting was completely uninspired. Neither De Niro or DiCaprio seemed to have a clue. The editing was atrocious and made this movie pretty much unwatchable.

This could have been a great movie and my wife and I were really looking forward to watching it. We both read the book and it was a great story of greed and murder as well as eye opening. How could they possible get this so wrong? We were just watching it and shaking our heads. The one bright spot was Jesse Plemons. I thought he did a really good job in this film.

Do yourself a favor. Read the book or listen to the audio book. In that you won't be disappointed. I can thankfully say I never have to watch this movie again under any circumstances. So disappointed in Martin and his team this time.
