"A documentary about a heavy metal band, even one that has sold 90 million albums since 1991, is hardly steak and chips for the art-house predators who roam the market....
...the opening blizzard of scenes in which the band are interrogated by brain-dead hacks is a masterclass in rock journalism. 'You’ve been together for 22 years, eight world tours, and 11 albums. Give me one word to sum it all up,' demands an interviewer. 'One word to span our career?' asks the frontman James Hetfield. 'What a f***ing stupid question.'
There is a delicious sense that things will only get worse. Berlinger and Sinofsky were contracted to shoot the making of Metallica’s new album, St Anger. What they capture is a band in fabulous crisis. There is nothing quite so exciting as watching a documentary turn into Spinal Tap before your eyes."
Jim Saw them four times in concert Maru
Metallica fan eh? Care to divulge any other bands you like?
