Movie Reviews of New York DollMovie Review: A glorious portrait Summary: 5 Stars
Even if you have no idea who the New York Dolls were, and even if you dislike rock and roll, NEW YORK DOLL is still a touching and vibrantly alive film. It's a sin this movie came and went in 2005 with little fanfare -- it's easily one of the best of last year.
The few extras are top notch, particularly the stand alone version of the hymn David Johansen sings during the credits. After experiencing the final five minutes of the movie, hearing his rendition of that piece will tingle your spine.
A GREAT documentary.
Movie Review: A Rock And Roll Forrest Gump Summary: 5 Stars
Wow....what a movie!!!! I was sitting there with friends at the end and said, "this is like a Rock and Roll Forrest Gump". The movie didn't leave a dry eye in the place and it didn't jump out as to "Join The Mormon Church" either. I was disapointed at first that there wasn't much on the other NY Dolls, but then I just came to love Arthur Kane and then didn't care that I wasn't seeing footage of Thunders/Nolan/Murcia/Sylvain/Johansen.I'm just glad Arthur found a higher power and peace in his life.
Movie Review: staggering Summary: 5 Stars
I saw it in the theatre. There were two other people there. One person got up and left mid-way through. Whatta fool I thought to myself. This film was such a moving bio, it took me until the lights came on, the screen went blank and the ushers started cleaning to get up outta my seat and leave. It's a fun, sad, endearing, tragic and truly beautiful human story of Arthur "Killer" Kane, bass player for the ground breaking New York Dolls.
Movie Review: Bitter sweet Summary: 5 Stars
I never knew what happened to Arthur. A sad bittersweet story of a group I had seen once when I was 15 years old, but never forgot. Sad they never got their do, cause if you were there they were so ahead of their time. I never realized how much until now. Johansen was rapping before it had a name...it was loud, it was raw, but most of all it was fun rock n roll. God I miss those days. Arthur may you rest in peace, we'll miss you.
Movie Review: Amazing!!! Summary: 5 Stars
I was blown away by this movie and recommend it to everyone. I ran across it while at the Sundance Film Festival and almost didn't get to see it as every show was sold out. I hope they come out w/ an extended version w/ tons of extra footage because I'll buy that one as well.
Can't wait for the April DVD release. Definietly a "must have" movie no matter who you are or what you are into.
