Scanialara You won't be disappointed!
Protraph Lack of good storyline.
Ceticultsot Beautiful, moving film.
BeSummers Funny, strange, confrontational and subversive, this is one of the most interesting experiences you'll have at the cinema this year.
johnnygoldman Pearl Jam is a great band, this movie covers a lot but somewhat disappointing. after the recent masterpiece documentary on the doors and the really good one about the foo fighters this one was kind of boring. the drummer switching which is interesting to fans was referred to in a short sequence without getting into it unlike the member changes in foo fighters who were really brave to bring them to interview in this one u felt like they wanted to ignore it, like they did something bad. also the movie was non linear and gave the viewer no sense of the time everything was happening and why for example the tour with Neil Young why pearl jam wasn't touring with Eddie Vedder. also in the Mike McCready sequence i was hoping for a mention of Mad Season the project he did with the late Lane Staley from Alice in Chains and a bit more of him in the movie like the Kurt Cobain mention. overall this could have been much better instead its an assembly of random stuff from the 20 year career of pearl jam which is nice but not as interesting as it should have been with hardly any conflicts were put on the table maybe that was needed so they can go on for another 10 years.
Engelbert Franssen Unfortunately I cannot give a objective rating about this documentary, because I am a enormous Pearl Jam fan. So the positive feeling that I get when I think of Pearl Jam could influence my view on the documentary.But I do think that it is worth a watch! It is such an interesting and inspiring band that deserves the attention of the big public. The documentary takes you by the hand and shows you how the band started and which big events occurred in the career of the band. I surely contains a lot of footage that I haven't seen before. So that was a pleasant surprise.And when you already like Pearl Jam, I think you will appreciate the music even more in the future. So you should watch it definitely.
ConfucioBSB PJ 20 is rich, smartly edited, brings incredible footage and tells interesting stories, but it should not receive 10 out of 10 for one big reason: it promises 20 years of history but only delivers 10. Obviously the first 10 were the formative years. However a lot happened during the latter decade which is barely touched by the film.The nuance in a lot of segments is to be loved. But it is sort of tricky that the five of them never appear together in the present time interviews. It tells a lot about how this great band works and should have been further explored.Overall though PJ 20 is a great film, specially for the initiated.
Shabber I am an avid Pearl Jam fan and this was such a pleasure to watch. My concern going in was that it would focus too much on Eddie and take a political twist. None of that happened...equal time spent on every band member and no political message, just a bit about what social concerns they have tried to address. Music was great. It was nice to hear and see footage from the early days in Seattle '89. You will get a great sense of what the band is like and their particular sense of humor. If you loved listening to Ten, go see this. Supposedly the DVD is going to have 4 hours of extra footage, so if you missed it last night, you might want to wait.
