For those who have not yet seen it, it is a 'warts an all' fly on the wall docuementary during the last world tour. Everything is covered, from being on the tour bus, hotels, interviews, airports, backstage, soundchecks, partying and live on stage footage. All in all a great effort and much better than the standart live dvd's that come out. There is something for everyone on here. Noel is definitley a great interviewee, and a clever fella infront of the cameras. He always has something witty and honest to say. Liam is typically straight down the line and honest as the night is long. I wouldn't of minded more footage of Madison Sqaure Garden, and perhaps more input from Gem, Andy or Zak. But it's a good effort and something everyone will be watching over and over again.  ps: Anyone seen the Radiohead movie 'Meeting People Is Easy'? Quite similar to Lord Don't Slow Me Down. |

Best line in the film -
Interviewer - What do you normally do before you go on stage?
Liam - Have a wank! ;D
The only thing which let it down for me was the amount of stupid interviewer who couldn't give a shit about the music and seemed soley after getting the goss on any rows between Noel and Liam. As Noel said toward the end, something along the lines of "Liam and I are probably the least interested people in that on the planet"

Yeah it’s a shame when Noel and Liam repeatedly receive poor questions. Like that American journalist (I think it was backstage at the Hollywood Bowl) who didn’t understand the meaning of the song ‘Cast No Shadow’. When Noel explained that it was in honour of The Verve frontman, ‘Richard Ashcroft’ who was having difficulties with his band, the American journalist said something like ‘oh……….cast no shadow. Is that because Richard Ashcroft is thin?
Noel looked up at the sky and explained that it’s because Richard Ashcroft is invisible to the music world. Hence ‘Cast No Shadow’.
You could clearly see that Noel was pissed off with this journalist.

I was a bit disappointed with the whole thing. It's nothing we hadn't seen before, there were no scenes that particularly stood out, there wasn't much of a structure and it didn't lead anywhere. It would've been nice to see the start of the tour, and the very end, to see the changing moods of the band as the tour goes on. Instead it ended with Noel saying "I won't be doing this forever". I'm still glad I stayed up to watch it though. When Noel explained that it was in honour of The Verve frontman, ‘Richard Ashcroft’ who was having difficulties with his band, the American journalist said something like ‘oh……….cast no shadow. I like how Richard Ashcroft's name was in inverted commas there, suggesting it's a brand name |

I liked it many great and funny parts there. Liam in Q-awards party: "alright then, who´s first then?" (for slagging off?) looking forward to longer dvd version. |

i like it , it was funny and clever , i wish they had more input from Andy , Gem and Zak , and i did not like that the question in the interviews seem to be the same all the time , but oh well those are journalist that only seem to care if noel and liam fight or not , or making dumb questions , i think is was good it show them as they are ,and that was the point of it as noel said in a interview ... plus i really like that for some reason that the majority of the film is in black and white

I liked the drunk girl that kept trying to introduce Noel to her friend. "Yes, I've already met him!" ..."Oh sorry, Noel. I'm a bit drunk."

have to say slightly disappointed as well. it of course will be on repeat for die-hard fans, but it really isnt overly engaging and truth be told, quite dull in spots. 7.5/10 for me.

A postive for me was the showing of full length songs from gigs, rock n roll star and dont look back in anger.
for the majority of the rock n roll star i felt the audio was from manchester, who knows where it was recorded.
i think it was cool how pro shots were taken from various concerts.
id like to think the upcoming DVD would include videos from gigs from the tour( like noize nad confusion, Astoria and MSG.

I thought it was fucking awesome, man!!!!
There were definitely times when I was hit with excitement... they had great video from live shows and then the juxtaposition with life off-stage. Good stuff, man.
I love the Black & White as well.... classic

The best bit was Liam in the interview with Gem.

Love how excited Liam gets when he sees Girls Aloud.
Wonder what Nicole thought of that one.

quite dull in spots. 7.5/10 for me. same here. a 20-30 min edit would have provided enough information about that tour...  for me, there were only few scenes of interest like seeing noel chilling in the bus listening to LTBL or the argument between the brothers in the restaurant.. |
