Movie Reviews of John Entwistle - An Ox Tale

Movie Review: Silence Like Thunder
Summary: 4 Stars

Sometimes what is not said speaks louder than the story that is told. Aside from the underlying causes of John's premature death, what scars this fine film and tribute to an extraordinary musician is what was not said and by whom. The lifestyle of rockstars -- drugs and drink, etc. --leads to bad and foolish behavior; that much is certain. But bad character is another matter and bad character is what is shown here, not by John or Pete, but by the glaring, conspicuous absence of Roger Daltry. Whatever personal differences Roger may have had with John pale when compared to the loss of a gifted, humble man who was his fellow band member for decades and one of the greatest bass players in the history of rock. While the brilliant but hyperneurotic Pete was open and frank, Daltry's total silence went beyond disrespect to sink into the nadir of insensitivity and crassness. I came away from this documentary with nothing but respect for John and nothing but contempt for Roger Daltry.

Summary of John Entwistle - An Ox Tale

In 1964, The Who became one of the key figures of the British Invasion, taking the American music scene by storm. While Roger Daltrey, Pete Townsend and Keith Moon took the spotlight with their on stage antics, John Entwistle, dubbed "The Quiet One," stood in the shadows... poised to become the biggest bass player in rock and roll. With his arena-rock days behind him, Entwistle continued down his own path, finding great musical freedom with the John Entwistle Band. In 2002, after years of touring his solo project, Entwistle couldn't resist the lure of bringing back one of the greatest bands in rock and roll history. Tragically, plans for The Who's North American Reunion Tour were cut short when on the eve of the first show John was found dead in his Las Vegas hotel room. "The Ox," as Entwistle was affectionately known, left behind many fans and several unfinished projects. With his passing, the world lost a musical legend, dubbed Guitar Magazine's "Bassist of the Millennium." Narrated by Peter Frampton, John Entwistle: An Ox's Tale covers the life of John Entwistle, from his first public performance at the age of 14 to his feelings about The Who's most recent reunion. This film contains the last footage and interviews ever shot with Entwistle, offering the one chance for fans to discover the real life behind the man who far exceeded his greatest aspirations.
