A pretty good documentary that could be called Metallica: Group Therapy. Not much is shown in this film beyond the therapy sessions and I feel that cheats the audience. I mean, what we learn from this film, is that the two dominate members are control freaks. So, I don't doubt that they had control over what was released in the film. And that's a shame. Because, as much as I like what I saw on the screen, I felt things were parsed. We are not really invited into the home lives of these people. We do see Lars and his paintings....but, you don't get a sense of the man at home.
Maybe, when the dvd is released, the band will allow the filmmakers to release all of the footage they did not give their approval on.
Because, as it stands, I think fans will find the footage too filtered.

Chasing Papi is a light diversion.
This is a watered down verison of the movie Shampoo, with Eduardo Verástegui playing the Warren Beatty role of the cad and womanizer. However, Chasing Papi is all eye candy with no substance.
In a nutshell, Chasing Papi is about three women who live in three different cities. Verástegui is based in Los Angeles but he gets around. A set of circumstances bring all three girls to his L.A. pad where they confront each other. This is all established in the first ten minutes of the movie.
Verástegui goes into such a state of disbelief that he over medicates himself and passes out. That leaves the remaining seventy minutes to the three girls played by Roselyn Sanchez, Sofía Vergara, and Jaci Velasquez. There is a subplot buried here of the three girls discovering their inner strength but I say: GIMMIE A BREAK. This movie is all eye candy. The girls look great and are there to appeal to the men in the audience.
This is supposed to be a comedy but the only cast member who elevates the movie from trivial farce to a truly comedic spirit is Paul Rodriguez. Unfortunately, his role is small and not enough to wish you had spent your time more wisely.
