licraig You don't have to be a Fishbone fan to appreciate this documentary, you just have to love music and people and magic and life. The story of these beautiful, brilliant, clever and funny boys finding each other and going on to create such incredible, groundbreaking and enduring music is wonderful and heart-warming. It gives you faith. The way this film shows the joys and strains of friendships and personalities as they grow and change within a long-running band is just brilliant. On top of that you feel the artistic struggles of integrity versus compromise, and the cruel industry that so often packages for the masses at the expense of creative genius. We've never seen a better music documentary. You come away loving the people and caring about them really deeply. And you hear their music and have to buy the albums. Brilliant! This is a sensitive, poignant, highly charged, yet incredibly touching snapshot of a really brilliant and beautiful bunch of guys. The film is funny, moving, painful, entertaining…. It's hard for a non-filmmaker to explain why this film works so well: It's just so honest and so 'real'. It's cleverly crafted, with brilliant scene-setting cartoons, and as the story unfolds you don't feel the joins as the ages pass or the people come and go; there's nothing clunky, staged or forced, you just get caught up in the love, the journey, the genuineness of the people, and the fun and passion of the music.

djqwisp I've loved Fishbone for a very long time, but I did not expect this film to be so good. I could see viewers who aren't even fans get caught up in this story. There is excitement, drama, humor, tragedy, conflict.... you name it. The famous musicians (who were not part of the band) that are interviewed have interesting perspectives and give the film an extra layer of credibility. The filmmakers were able to pull together some amazing live footage of the band in their heyday. They have really crafted this band's story into an amazing narrative. The members of Fishbone really put their soul into that band, and they pour their hearts out on camera.Do yourself a favor and go see this film!

krispy73 Fishbone has been apart of me since the late 80's. Started when my cousin put in a tape for me. The album was called "In Your Face". I was hooked. By "Truth and Soul" I became part of the Family and there was no turning back. Every concert to Detroit I was there. With or without a date. This band rocks. You hear Fishbone it stirs something inside you, you may not be able to put your finger on it, its there, in your Face. This film enriched the Fishbone Family in more ways than there is space to write. If you are new to the "Family", born to the "Family" (like my kids), or married to the family;) it really don't matter this film is a must see, must have. Gives insight to the magic behind the music. Always Still Stuck in my heart,Kris

etkeeney Such a treat to learn more about one of the greatest bands ever. The comments from their contemporaries are priceless - and getting to know Angelo and Norwood on such a personal level was so insightful. My only complaint about the movie is it tended to paint a rather bleak picture of the band's existence and didn't focus enough on the great things they've continued to accomplish like their continued success touring in Europe or their album "Still Stuck in your Throat". In fact - this album was skipped altogether - which is sad - as it is a "later career" record - and is surely one of their top 3 of all time. Nonetheless - Fishbone certainly deserves far greater praise and success than they enjoy today. Let us hope this film helps push them higher, as there is no band on the planet more deserving.
