I confess...I'm a hardcore Wilco fan. I'm sure that colors my view of the documentary, but I found it a very interesting and ultimately redeeming film. After a slow start, I found myself engrossed in the band's struggle to complete the album. It's a testament to Jones' skill that he is able to capture some truly uncomfortable moments between band members with such directness.
The film has it all...great music, insightful views into the band and music industry, and enough lightheartedness to keep the film balanced.
A must see for Wilco fans...For non-Wilco fans...well...I dunno. Maybe...maybe not.
9 out of 10.
