Movie Reviews of NYHC

Movie Review: WORTH IT
Summary: 4 Stars

Could have covered alot more and included some more significant bits and pieces. Lots of average hardcore bands. Not 100% happy with the overall message thats conveyed although its not all bad. It got 4 stars. Theres heaps here. And the bonus material is gold. Roger miret, Freddy madball, john joseph (agnostic front, cro-mags). must have for hardcore bretheren

Movie Review: Douglas Mallach Recommended
Summary: 4 Stars

Douglas Mallach a hardcore and ska musician out of Houston told me to catch this movie. He is a great musician, and I thought if Douglas Mallach thinks highly of it, it's worth trying out. He was right. It's a great movie. If your a musician or just an avid enthusiast, it's worth seeing.

Movie Review: Great
Summary: 4 Stars

Growing up in NYC in '95 -ish...this is a must own...wish they would've gotten some more bands in there....especially Sick Of It All, but if you get the DVD, Lou can explain that.

Definitely worth it

Movie Review: It's Over
Summary: 2 Stars

Hardcore ended in the mid-eighties. It's done, OK? Everything else is just nostalgia.

Movie Review: NOT NYHC
Summary: 1 Stars

Let me start by writing that I was there, at CBGB, nearly every Sunday, from 1984 to 1988, until I relocated. And even then, over those 4 years, when the scene was at its peak, I felt like I missed out on so much. So how does this documentary get to be titled NYHC when it focuses almost exclusively on the nineties? I don't get it. I expected it to cover the development of hardcore in New York, starting with the arrival of the Bad Brains, and moving on from there. But no.

No HR interview.
No Vinnie Stigma.
No Harley Flanagan.
No Todd Youth.
No War Zone, Token Entry, Youth of Today, Bold, Underdog, Reagan Youth, Krakdown, Sick Of It All, Rest In Pieces, etc. etc. etc.
NO HILLY KRISTAL (RIP) interview!!!!! This was filmed before he passed away, and they didn't even take the time to meet with the man who had enough foresight to give us hardcore matinees. Instead, the directors went to Northport, Long Island.

Not even any references to the Rock Hotel, or Chris Williamson.

These people, and many more, were the heart and soul of the NYHC, and they are entirely omitted from this documentary.

Save your money. Buy American Hardcore instead. It's much more thorough, with great interviews with hardcore veterans from around the country.
