Movie Reviews of Later... with Jools Holland: Cool Britannia 2
Movie Review: Cool Britannia, part 2
Summary: 5 Stars
This is a collection of live performances of british bands on the Jools Holland show (which is very good for the kind of artists they have on the show, you won't see them anywhere else).
To start the review, we have over 35 performances (some better than others) of well-known bands, such as Oasis, Blur, Keane, New Order, Coldplay, etc. and others that you've probably never heard of (McAlmont and Butler and The Ordinary Boys, anyone?).
To me, the highlights include:
"This Is Hardcore" by Pulp - a great track, wonderful performance and incredible arrangements. Jarvis Cocker steals the show here, such a funny way to perform live!
"Why does it always rain on me?" by Travis - I listened so many times to this track way back in 1999 when it became huge, that I had forgotten how good it was. A perfect sing-a-long and a fan favourite.
"Golden Touch" by Ian Brown - The former frontman of The Stone Roses returns with a catchy track, great arrangements. There's an interview included on the DVD, he talks about his last album, "Solarized".
"Cigarrettes & Alcohol" by Oasis - Any song that has the lyric "I might as well do the white line" has to be good and this one's really good actually! This track was performed during a special program about Oasis, but the song was released back in 1994.
"Helicopter" by Bloc Party - Great energy in this one! Performed before their debut album was released.
"I Predict A Riot" by Kaiser Chiefs - The british band of 2005, performing their biggest hit. It makes me wanna go out and dance all night long.
Some other bands have their time here, and there some interviews that are good enough for fans. Overall it's a good compilation if you like british bands (such as myself); perhaps the only problem is that other well-known bands such as Kasabian, Muse and The Music are absent, this means we'll see a part 3 of this collection...
