I'm gonna watch this even though Motley Crue were at best a pretty fucken ordinary band.
I can't imagine how good the equivalent GnR movie would be.
Kickstart My Heart and Dr Feelgood are as good a rock tracks as you are going to hear. The rest i could easily take or leave.
A decent GnR movie could never be made. Not sure the egos in play could handle it.

Teaser would be my favourite song of theirs but in terms of great rock acts they're firmly in the lower division for me.

A small thing that irked me about the Crue movie (which I really enjoyed) is they didn't show how Sixx went on to right Kick Start My Heart straight after his OD and I was gutted it wasn't in the Movie and then stoked they played out the whole song in the credits.
I read the book years ago (Was it called Decade of Decadence?) and it was a good read on how they lived. The movie kind of captured that but I always thought the rest of the band also did a tonne of drugs
-
@mariner4life Yeah, I watched it last night and thought it was basically a TV-movie with tits.
Entertaining enough for a Tuesday night.

Where Tremaine’s skillset really shines – and by extension the sequences that separate The Dirt from other genre entries – is in capturing the infectious camaraderie of immature male lunacy.
The Dirt review – slick Netflix Mötley Crüe biopic mostly rocks
A mixture of debauchery and darkness, it’s a film that treads a familiar line but does so with skill, featuring a standout turn from Machine Gun Kelly

@Tim that's a pretty good review from my perspective, they obviously got the same sort of impression i did.
And then i realised it's in the Guardian, so i read the comments. Holy shit Guardian readers are total panty waists
-
@mariner4life Oh man, you never read the comments!
Yeah, probably the fairest review I've seen. Agree with the critic that the movie slows down in the second half when it loses its focus on the thrill of debauchery.

@Mokey is fap still a valid discount code?

@Rocky-Rockbottom I fucking hated that movie and it's stupid theme song. And the stupid vapid characters. And the end was dumb.

Loved it. Watched it about 6 months ago.
Great soundtrack.

Of course it might help if Netflix had a proper fucking search facility.

@mariner4life Nah, the Kavinsky songs worked well for that movie.
Try watching it after a few beers.

The plot thickens! Mine does although oddly it's a big button called "Search" which may throw you a bit at first...
