Movie Reviews of Air Guitar Nation
Movie Review: One of the Stranger Documentaries
Summary: 3 Stars
Air Guitar Nation is one of the stranger documentaries that I've seen in a while. The film chronicles the events leading up to and including the World Air Guitar Championship of 2003 held in Oulu, Finland. More than this the film tells the personal stories of two of the United States competitors, David "C-Diddy" Jung and Ben "Bjorn Toroque" Crane as they compete for national and world fame as air guitarists.
Alaxandra Lipsitz's documentary is one of those strange films that holds you fscinated while you wonder why on earth you are taking the time to watch this film. Weaving interviews with competitors and the founders of the US Air Guitar Championships along with performance footage the film gives a fairly good overview of the hobby/sport.
This is not deep drama but Lipsitz pulls it off well and the short film is fun to watch even if it is all essentially good fun. The film boasts a great soundtrack and aroun 40 minutes of deleted scenes and bonus interviews. Rent it before you buy.
Movie Review: Keep Your Finger on the Skip Button
Summary: 3 Stars
I can't believe that nobody has mentioned all the perverted scenes in this movie.
There's a naked guy who yanks himself on stage in front of little kids. There's three contestants who mock Jesus (what does mocking Jesus have to do with air guitar? Nothing.) Then there's the guy who thinks he's wonderful because he makes out with another guy on camera.
With these scenes deleted, this could easily have been a great four or five star movie.
Movie Review: No closed captioning
Summary: 1 Stars
No closed-captioning equals a ZERO vote.
Without CC, this DVD is USELESS to hearing-impaired people.
Not considering disabled viewers is just typical of Docurama.
