Movie Reviews of Jerry Lee Lewis- Killer PianoMovie Review: Great, Historical, I Really Loved It. Summary: 5 Stars
I'm fifty-four and I've been a Jerry Lee fan ever since I can remember. I've seen him in person no less than five times and he always blew my mind--good on tv but unbelievable in person.
This is Jerry reminiscing but also playing some of his great songs unaccompanied--just him and that old piano--with the camera up above him where musicians can see his hands. I loved it. None of us are getting any younger and I'm glad we have this document so that we can all actually see how the magic was made--and make no mistake about it, when he gets both hands going the magic is definitely still there. Fantastic.
I can't think of any performer who has given me more pure joy over the whole course of my life than Jerry Lee Lewis, the Killer, and this is a very welcome addition to my collection.
Believe it or not I have a little boy who has recently asked (on his own!) for piano lessons (!) and I can't wait to turn him onto this. Jerry Lee Lewis is actually a very nice person (I met him once) and he's someone whose music always makes me happy, no matter how down I might be.
Thanks, Killer, and many happy returns.
